A seated figure in a saffron-orange robe sits on an ornate golden throne with red cushions before a large painted backdrop of a banyan tree with hanging aerial roots. Attendants surround the seat: a man in a white shirt and beige trousers stands with hands folded, a man in an orange dhoti stands behind, and women in yellow, white and purple saris, one in a white sari with a long braid, stand nearby. A young woman in a white sari kneels beside the throne. Red and green rugs cover the floor and a red-carpeted platform sits in front.
