A staged scene before a large painted backdrop of a green banyan tree under an orange, cloudy sky. A figure sits cross-legged on an ornate gold-and-red throne with carved lion-like side supports, wearing an orange-brown headdress, a saffron-orange shawl, a rudraksha mala and an orange garland. The figure's bare arms rest on the throne arms. Brass oil lamps stand on both sides, and tall gilded pillars frame the stage with red drapes and a white canopy overhead. The figure appears to be a statue or effigy rather than a living person, and the public seating is empty. a person appearance cues include the saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, but the figure is a carved or sculpted figure on a throne.
