A seated figure in an orange-saffron robe sits on a gilded throne decorated with white and red-yellow flower garlands, in front of white and green draped backdrops with floral swags. Devotees bend to offer reverence: a man in a white shirt and dark trousers bows near the throne's left side, and a woman in a cream sari with red border kneels at the right, holding the seated figure's hand or foot. Other people in white and orange clothing stand nearby, one in a white sari with a red-and-gold border on the right. A gold footstool with flowers sits below the throne on a red-carpeted stage. The seated figure is shown with no clear visible name tag or caption; the appearance-based identity is uncertain.
