Two men sit on ornate gold thrones on a stage before a gilded shrine with a golden deity murti of Shiva and Parvati draped in white and red cloth. The man on the left wears a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl, a gold beaded garland, and a wide white forehead mark, with a microphone beside him. The man on the right has long swept-back hair, a full dark beard, a rudraksha mala with a rust-red robe, and his hands are folded in his lap as he smiles. Potted plants, green foliage, red drapes and brass lamps frame the stage. Whether the man on the right is a person is uncertain from appearance alone.
