A seated man in an orange-red turban, white and red flower garland, and gold necklaces sits on a red velvet throne before an ornate gold backdrop, reaching to touch a decorated pot with a green leaf sprig held by a bare-chested attendant in white dhoti and magenta shawl with a purple turban. A small electronic keyboard stands beside the throne and a red curtain hangs behind. The scene suggests a kalasha ritual during a ceremony. The seated man is an appearance-based candidate for a person, but the visible cues are limited to the turban, garland and gold jewellery, so identity is uncertain.
