A photograph of a seated man on an ornate golden throne (peetha) with a gold arched backrest encircled by garlands of yellow and maroon marigold flowers and green leaves, with white jasmine strands. He wears a light gold embroidered sherwani-style tunic over pale blue trousers and a gold shawl draped over one shoulder, with a red bindi on his forehead and long dark hair. He sits cross-legged with bare feet, hands resting on his knees, smiling. Red tiger-striped cushions flank the throne, and a checkered woven mat backdrop and a red bauble hang behind him.
