A ceremonial Thulabaram-style scene in a decorated hall with a deep red curtain and a gold canopy wrapped in green leaves and marigold and rose garlands. A man with a gold crown, gold necklaces and bangles, wearing a rust-brown dhoti and a white flower garland, sits cross-legged on a garlanded swing seat at left. Three attendants in saffron-orange robes and orange turbans stand at right; two of them hold a large yellow cloth bundle between them, while a third stands behind. A saffron-and-green banner with a white bird emblem hangs on the left pole, and a colourful woven rug covers the floor.
