Several women and a man in white and orange clothing sit on the floor in front, some with long dark hair, one holding a small cup, with brass oil lamps lit on either side and a tray of offerings nearby. The backdrop is a large painted temple-style scene with red curtains, pillars and a painted female figure in a purple and red sari.2011-01-28A seated figure on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions sits with palms pressed together in namaste at chest level. He wears a red turban with a fan-shaped top, a green and magenta silk garment, a gold necklace, and gold armbands. Lit oil lamps in tiered brass stands flank the throne. In the foreground, a woman in a black blouse and beige sari with a long braid faces him, and a man in a cream kurta sits at right with a small offering plate. Behind the throne, a large floral arrangement of yellow and red marigolds and a painted deity image on a backdrop complete the setting. The figure's appearance is not clear enough to confirm identity.2011-11-01A man with long swept-back dark hair, a red bindi, rudraksha malas and a gold pendant sits on an ornate golden throne flanked by golden lion heads, wearing a white dhoti-style garment and gold armlets, with both palms raised in blessing.

Behind the throne hang orange drapes, marigold garlands, and a painted temple backdrop with pillars and a deity image.2011-02-12A seated man in an ornate gilded throne with a red velvet cushion and tiger-striped seat cover, palms pressed together in namaste.

Around the throne stand brass oil lamps, and a man in a green striped shirt sits at lower right with hands folded, while a man in white at left tends to ritual items. The dark slate-grey backdrop has hanging beads.
