A photograph of a staged ceremonial scene with a seated figure in the centre on an ornate silver throne with a silver canopy, palms pressed together in namaste. The seated man wears an orange-red dhoti and shawl, a dark cap-like head covering and a rudraksha-style necklace; he is seated between a golden bull figure (nandi) on the right and deity murti figures in garlands on both sides. A standing man on the left, bare-chested in orange-red cloth with dreadlocks and beaded adornments, gestures toward the throne. Colourful fringed canopies hang overhead, a red curtain and stage lights form the backdrop, and a red carpet lies at the base of the throne. The image is appearance-based only and no printed name identifies the seated figure.
