A group stands inside a covered pavilion beside an ornate gold-plated throne with a tall, arched backrest carved with floral and figural panels, its seat draped in plastic sheeting. A man in an orange turban and orange robe, with a long rudraksha mala and dark hair, stands centre-frame looking toward the throne, with a bare-chested long-haired sadhu in orange at right and a man in white dhoti and orange shawl beside him. Younger men in blue and yellow shirts and a white-clad man stand behind, and a figure in orange and a figure in a pink shawl are in the foreground near the throne. The orange-robed figure appears to be a person by appearance, with saffron robes, rudraksha mala and turban as cues, though the image is uncertain.
