A man in a yellow-and-white striped shirt bends forward to touch the seated figure's shoulder in reverence while others stand around. On the left, men in white shirts and white trousers stand with hands folded or at their sides, one wearing an orange garment. On the right, women in white and light-blue saris and blouses stand close, one in a pale blue shawl with hands together in a respectful gesture. Red and white flower arrangements decorate the throne backdrop, and a white draped backdrop fills the background.
