- Description:
- Monochromatic view of the interior of the Sessions Court at the Thirumalai Nayak Palace looking towards the throne platform and punkah. The space is defined by massive stone pillars and ornate pointed cinquefoil arches. Pillars are in the center and on either side of the frame, but we are looking from an angle. On the right side are steps leading to the throne platform, with the fabric fan (the punkah) above. On the left a series of arches are visible, and in the back of the space is a small rack.
