A seated man in a gilded ornate throne with a carved golden backrest and a white tiger-skin cushion, palms pressed together in greeting. He wears a red-orange dhoti-style garment, a sandalwood-coloured shawl, a pink and red flower garland and a gold bead necklace, with a red bindi on his forehead. Brass oil lamps hang from chains on both sides, and a multi-tier oil lamp burns in the foreground. Around the throne, a bald priest in white dhoti on the left and women in white and cream saris with red blouses hold lamps or offerings. The page appears to be a ritual scene at a temple event.
