A seated man with long dark hair and a red bindi sits on an ornate gold throne decorated with garlands of yellow, red, purple and white flowers. He wears a white dhoti and shawl with gold borders and a heavy gold necklace, and presses his palms together in namaste with eyes closed. Silver ritual vessels sit at the base of the throne.
