The seated man wears a maroon turban, a maroon-and-orange cloth, a white flower garland with a pink and red garland, and a gold necklace. A silver trident stands beside the throne. To the left, a figure in orange holds a bouquet of flowers and a plate. Behind them is a carved wooden door and painted pillars with colourful bands.

A seated figure on an ornate silver throne with a leopard-print cushion wears a rust-brown robe with gold trim, a long gold-beaded necklace and bare feet, and places a hand on the head of a kneeling man in a white dhoti and bare back. A woman with long dreadlocks in an orange sari and orange wrap stands behind him, hands on his shoulders, with white horizontal markings on her arms; another orange-clad attendant stands at the left edge.
