A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gilded throne with a crown-like gilt backrest, draped in a rust-brown cloth with a red and multicolour garland of flowers around the neck. A hand in the foreground holds a silver aarti plate with burning oil flames, waved before the seated figure. Brass oil lamps and bells hang from the dark shrine ceiling, and orange-and-yellow painted panels frame the doorway. The figure's face is obscured and not clearly visible; the scene reads as an aarti ritual at a golden throne.
