Ceremonial stage scene in which a man in a rust-orange kurta kneels before a seated figure on an ornate silver throne (peetha) draped in flower garlands of red, yellow, purple and green, under a silver umbrella-canopy. The seated figure wears a deep red robe, a tilak on the forehead and a leopard-print cushion behind. Hands are raised in blessing or touching the seated figure's head. A trident stands at left and a woman in saffron-orange with a rudraksha mala and a dark turban-style hair wrap stands at right, with a red temple-like backdrop and a starry dark background. This appears to be a puja-related abhishekam or pattabhishekam-style honouring at a temple-style stage.
