A man seated on a blue-draped platform in front of a large colourful deity figure, a lion-headed form with a yellow mane and a painted turquoise torso in an embroidered gold garment. He wears a rust-orange dhoti or robe, a rudraksha mala draped across his chest and arms, and a thick white and red flower garland with multicoloured ribbons. He holds two silver staffs, smiles broadly, and has a tilak on his forehead. A dark buffalo-like figure sits beside him on the platform. The setting is nighttime, lit by flash, with the figure's bright ornaments and garlands prominent.
