A photograph of a man seated on a golden throne decorated with a large arch of marigold and red flower garlands in yellow, orange, magenta and white. He wears a white dhoti with a gold border, a bare upper body, and a heavy gold necklace of beads. He has a red tilak on his forehead and long dark hair, and he raises both palms outward in a blessing gesture while smiling. Behind the throne are a golden ornamental backrest, a flower-covered wall of yellow blooms, and a painted decorative panel in red, green and white. The person matches the page's a person presentation only partially: long hair, gold necklace and white-gold ritual dress, but the appearance is uncertain, so the role is given as a seated figure giving blessings.
