A figure seated on a white-draped dais inside a pale pink fabric tent, wearing a white turban and white garment with dark striped fabric below, a long garland of yellow, orange and magenta flowers draped over the seat back, with a flower arrangement, brass vessel and plates of fruit and sweets on the dais. Behind, a stage with red-carpeted steps holds a drum kit and a standing musician in dark clothes, with two or three other people in pale clothing near the steps and a gold-and-white pillar at left. A small projector sits on the green-carpeted floor at lower right. The seated figure's identity cannot be confirmed from appearance, so this is a person on a throne-like seat in a festival tent.
