A man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate golden-and-red throne decorated with dense garlands of white jasmine, red roses and yellow and orange marigolds. He wears a long red-and-pink flower garland over his shoulders and a red tilak on his forehead, and holds a golden trident-like staff beside him. Golden lion-shaped figures flank the throne base, and a small golden deity relief is mounted at the top. A few people stand in the dim background under a metal roof.
