A photograph inside a brightly painted temple hall with blue walls, pink and green ornamental pillars and a golden throne in an arched doorway. A man in saffron-orange robes and a pink-and-white flower garland sits on the gilded throne with a tiger-skin cloth and a whisk-like fly-whisk in his hand. Devotees sit on red carpets; one woman in a red sari kneels before the throne. In the foreground, a priest in saffron cloth holds a multi-flame brass aarti lamp, and brass oil lamps stand beside the throne. Hanging bells hang at the doorway, and a seated man in white shirt and grey trousers folds his hands in prayer at right. The visible cues for the central figure are ornate saffron clothing and a flower garland on a throne, so the appearance-based label is a person in a seated, being-honoured role.
