A seated figure in saffron-orange robes and a multicoloured flower garland sits on an ornate gilded throne with lion-head armrests, draped with a striped tiger-skin cushion, on a red-carpeted stage. The figure wears a red bindi and a shawl over the shoulders; the figure's face is calm and forward-facing. Brass oil lamps stand on either side, with gilded carved pillars and a golden canopy above. Behind is a large dark-red curtain and a stone-textured backdrop. A small red-draped table with a floral offering sits in front of the throne. Several people are only partly visible at the lower edge of the frame.
