A person stands on a stage beside a large brown throne-style chair, holding a silver trident with one hand and resting the other on the chair's arm. They wear an orange sari-style garment with gold-edged borders draped over a dark red sleeveless top, with long dark hair swept back. Behind them a backdrop shows partial large orange lettering reading HYAN... and PROG...AM, with Tamil script across the top. Brown tasseled cushions flank the throne. Possibly a person event; the figure appears to be a devotee or performer in orange ritual dress, with no clear appearance-based basis for identifying the presiding figure.
