A staged temple-style tableau in a hall with a raised platform and gold-trimmed backdrop of red drapes. On the left, a gilded throne-like seat holds a seated male figure with long dark hair and a garland, appearing to be a statue or lifelike figure; a fan-shaped element is nearby. At centre, a gold-framed shrine holds a deity murti. On the right, two ornately decorated figures sit on a white-draped bed or seat beneath a gold canopy, one adorned with a crown and garlands, with a peacock-like figure beside them. Several orange-robed people sit on the floor in front of the platform, some seated in a line near a brass railing, performing a ceremony with lamps and offerings. Stage lights hang from the ceiling.
