A flower-decorated ceremonial stage in a temple-style hall with purple lighting. A seated figure on a cushioned throne under a floral arch wears a gold crown, a pink-and-white flower garland, gold armbands and a rust-red garment. Several men in white dhotis and shawls stand around, some bare-chested with orange cloths, one with hands folded in namaste and another bending to tend an offering. Marigold and rose garlands drape the pillars, and white flower arrangements fill the foreground.

A gold-framed throne-like seat under a floral arch is at centre, with a red floral backdrop. Several men in white dhotis and white shirts stand near the arch, with one man in a white dhoti and bare upper body moving near the gold seat. Two men wear saffron-orange cloth draped over their shoulders, and women in cream and gold saris stand at right with hands folded in namaskar.

No figure on the throne is clearly identifiable as a person by appearance, so the seated figure is not claimed.2017-07-09July 09 20172017-07-09
