A seated figure in orange-saffron robes sits on an ornate golden throne with a gilded umbrella overhead, hands pressed together in a namaskar gesture, on a raised stage. The backdrop is a painted grey panel with large streaks of pink, blue, yellow and green, framed by a navy curtain and red swagged drapes with gold trim. Potted plants stand at either side of the stage and a small figure sits at the throne's base. Several audience members are seen from behind in the foreground. The figure has a bare-chested orange garment and a shawl, with a rudraksha-style necklace visible. The throne is elaborately carved with a gold finish.
