Nearby a man in a dark jacket with an orange scarf and a woman in a floral top offer their hands, and a robed monk in orange stands behind. A trident stands at left and a shallow tray with pink cloth and offerings lies in front of the throne, in a large hall with a screen and crowd in the background. Strong appearance cues suggest a person on the throne, but this is uncertain.
