A seated figure in white ceremonial clothing sits on a zebra-striped throne (peetha) decorated with white jasmine garlands, marigold and multicoloured flower garlands, and pink and yellow floral arrangements. The figure wears a white turban and a white robe with a long red-and-white garland draped over the shoulders, and rests one hand near the face. The throne stands on a raised blue-draped platform with a white flower-garland border, set against a red backdrop with white pillars topped with gold capitals. Speakers, a small monitor and a few standing attendees in orange and white are visible in the background, and a woman in orange-trimmed white stands at the right edge. The scene appears to be an evening festival celebration.
