A seated woman in an orange sari and a black-and-white leopard-print blouse sits on a dark red throne with gold trim and carved gold legs, her hands resting in her lap. A small wooden footstool sits on a multicoloured striped mat in front of her. Behind her, a crowd of devotees in white and red-bordered clothing with red shawls stand near orange flags on a dusk-lit outdoor ground, with stadium-style seating visible to the right. The woman is an appearance-based candidate for a person, but the cues are not distinctive enough to confirm, so the identity is uncertain.
