A photograph of a stage set for a Navarathri darbar. On the left, a seated man in a saffron-orange robe and matching orange head wrap sits on an ornate silver throne with leopard-print cushions, a rudraksha-style mala around his neck, and a silver trident leaning beside the throne; a microphone stand is in front of him. On the right, a decorated deity murti is adorned with white and orange flower garlands, a silver crown, and a magenta sari-like drape. Brass pots, a kalasha-style vessel, and small offering trays sit on the floor, and a starry blue-purple backdrop fills the background. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the page's reference to a person, but the identification is uncertain from appearance alone.
