A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne with carved backrest and sunburst motif, wearing a red-orange turban, rust-coloured robe with gold border and a pink and white flower garland. He holds a pen and bends over papers resting on a gold-trimmed low table. Beside him a shaven-headed man in rust and orange robes with a rudraksha mala and a wristwatch kneels and holds the papers steady. Orange and marigold garlands decorate the throne, and a partially visible person in orange stands at the left edge with another figure at the right.2015-01-12January 12 20152015-01-12A seated figure on a gold ornate throne is draped in a maroon turban with a silver emblem, a rust-coloured shawl, a long beaded rudraksha-style necklace and gold chains, with eyes lowered. Behind the throne is a large arch of marigolds and roses in yellow, orange, purple and red, with silver umbrellas at the sides. A tiger-skin cloth covers the dais, and a golden lion-head stand sits at the left. A second person in orange-saffron robes kneels at the right, holding and offering something in cupped hands at the figure's lap.
