A seated figure in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, hands pressed together in anjali mudra at the chest. Several gold-and-red beaded necklaces and a garland hang at the neck. Behind the throne, a blue-and-gold shrine panel with a deity murti and floral garlands stands between cream pillars with blue-and-red striped borders. A small table with flowers and offerings sits at the right edge. The figure is described as a person, based on saffron robes, ceremonial gold necklaces and the page's event context.
