Centre stage, a figure seated on an ornate golden throne with a red cushioned seat and a red-and-gold canopy above, wearing a blue garment and draped with a white and multicoloured flower garland. The figure's appearance is uncertain, and the seat is a throne, which is insufficient to establish a person candidate. Flanking the throne are gold-cased seat supports and several brass oil lamps lit on both sides. To the left stands a golden palanquin-style pedestal decorated with yellow and white flower garlands, holding a blue deity murti. The backdrop has a beige drape with painted symbols including a trishul, crescent moon, om, swastika, a dove, and an open book. Lit brass lamps, garlands and a purple-tinted light complete the stage.2010-12-26
