A ceremonial stage draped in orange, red and purple cloth beneath a blue-and-red canopy with gold trim. A bare-chested priest in an orange-brown dhoti bends forward to touch a gilded ceremonial throne, with a tall kalasha-like lamp and a brass arati plate nearby. A seated figure in white and orange sits beside a white-covered table, and robed attendants in orange stand to the left on a green carpet. Gold-framed decorations and tassels hang from the stage. The scene reads as a temple-style puja or throne honouring.
