A photograph of a ceremonial stage with a seated figure on an ornate gold throne with a carved back and a tiger-skin cushion beneath him. The seated man wears a maroon turban, a rudraksha-style bead necklace and maroon robes, and presses his palms together in greeting while smiling. A man in orange robes bends forward in reverence before him, and a bald attendant in maroon robes with gold borders kneels at left beside the throne. Another attendant in maroon and gold stands at right holding a folded orange cloth. Behind them, deity murtis with gold crowns and garlands stand in a shrine niche, a brass lamp and trident stand nearby, and a painted backdrop shows palm trees and a sunset. Visible people count: four.
