On the right, a bare-chested man in a red garment with a long yellow-and-white flower garland sits beside the throne, a red dot on his forehead, facing left with a calm expression. To the left, a large standing statue in red robes and a red turban, with a gold ornate necklace and hands in a gesture, is framed by a flower arch of yellow, red, purple and green.
