A seated figure on an ornate golden throne wears orange and red cloth and a gold necklace, with a gold parasol above and two decorated fan-like banners beside. A white-clad priest in a white dhoti and orange sash stands before the throne near offerings. Rows of seated devotees in white and orange clothing face the throne, while a line of people in white and orange stands at the right. Along the floor at right are rows of small cups and plates of food, and in the foreground, seated devotees in white and saffron clothing fill the lower frame. The seated figure on the throne shows distinctive adornments but the appearance is not sufficiently clear to confirm identity.
