The seated person wears a pink garment, a gold crown-like headpiece, and a garland of white and multicoloured flowers across the chest, with one hand raised in blessing. In front, a devotee in an orange dhoti bows with folded hands at the throne's base, near a gold-covered footstool with a flower-decorated cushion. Lit brass oil lamps stand beside the throne. A line of attendants in red, green, pink and yellow silk garments with matching turbans waits behind, and another man in orange stands at the right. The backdrop is a painted blue-brick wall with a blue curtain. The seated figure's identity is not established by visible text, and appearance alone does not clearly support a person identification, so the figure is described by role only.2010-12-26A seated figure on a gilded throne with a red cushion, draped in a long garland of white, yellow, orange and purple flowers, wears a golden crown and a pink top and pink trousers, with a canopy of red, green and yellow fringed fabric above.

A brass oil lamp stands before the throne beside a red-cushioned low seat with flower garlands, and a gilded wooden chest sits at the lower left.

A seated figure on a gold-framed throne with a flower-garlanded backrest and a striped red and yellow canopy wears a pink and red garment with a garland, and a bare-headed white-clad priest with a red shawl stands at left near a garlanded deity murti in a glass-like shrine. Brass oil lamps stand on both sides, and three attendants gather around the throne: one in an orange dhoti with a red-and-black patterned top, one in a red and black garment, and one in a blue kurta with a black vest and a dark cap. The seated figure is shown with a crown-like headpiece, but the person's identity cannot be determined from appearance, so the figure is treated as a role-played seated figure on a throne.2010-12-26September 21 20172017-09-21 +1 copiesNovember 05 20102010-11-05A photograph of a stage event decorated with garlands of yellow marigolds, purple and red flowers, and white blossoms draped around a canopy and pillars.
