A seated figure in saffron-orange robes with a flower garland sits on an ornate gold throne with a small canopy, on a raised stage. Behind the throne hangs a large printed portrait of a smiling man with long hair and a red forehead mark. Seated devotees in white and orange clothing line the stage on both sides, with brass offering vessels and fruit placed before the throne. Colourful garlanded banners hang on the walls. The scene resembles a satsang or Ananda Samajam gathering. The throned figure's identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.
