A tall gold trident stands at the left against a deep red curtain, and a large painted deity mural with multiple arms and jewelled ornaments fills the background. A sacred ash or kumkum mark is visible on the forehead. The scene is a ceremonial throne setting with a statue-like seated figure and several painted portraits at the lower left.
