A photograph of a seated man on an ornate golden throne with a gold-carved back and a golden canopy above, on a stage with a dark blue backdrop. He wears a white turban, a lavender-and-blue patterned kurta and blue trousers, with white and orange flower garlands and a rudraksha-style mala around his neck. He smiles and looks to his left while resting his hands on the armrests. To the right, a large silver-and-gold kalasha-like vessel draped in gold fabric and covered in white flower garlands stands beside a tall brass oil lamp, with a flame and smoke rising near the edge of the frame. Potted yellow and red flowers sit beside the throne. The setting appears to be a large hall with a metal truss ceiling.
