A large crowd of devotees sits on the floor of a decorated hall, viewed from behind several heads in the foreground. A figure with long dark hair and an orange-saffron robe sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne at the front, a tall golden staff beside him. Overhead hang many colourful paper lanterns and tasselled decorations in orange, pink, green and red. Two screens on the side walls show close-up views of the seated figure. Many devotees wear white, cream, pink and teal clothing, with some saris and kurtas visible. The scene suggests a satsang or darshan during a festival.
