A seated man in an orange-saffron robe sits on an ornate gold throne with a carved arched back, palms pressed together in namaste before a draped red-and-pink backdrop. Around him kneel and sit devotees in white and yellow clothes, several with hands folded or raised in greeting; some hold offering items, and a small table with bottles and books stands at the left. The setting appears to be an open pavilion with a patterned carpet. The man in orange is an appearance-based a person candidate, identified by the orange robe and seated on the throne with devotees gathered before him.
