A photograph of a large floral arch decorated with red, white, green, purple and yellow bands, framing a man seated on an ornate jewelled throne with carved elephant-head arms. He wears an orange-red garment, a long rudraksha-style garland of red flowers and a gold necklace, with a gold crown on his head. Around the stage, many people in white ritual clothes sit on the floor, some holding oil lamps, and a few in colourful garments stand at the edges. A large backdrop shows golden bokeh lights. The seated figure has distinctive ceremonial cues, so this is a person presence in person.
