A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne with red cushions and a golden lion armrest, dressed in an orange saffron robe with long dark hair. The figure extends his arms to take a red velvet-covered object from a standing man in a white kurta and white dhoti with gold border, who bends forward and holds it out. Behind the throne are a large framed deity image of a goddess in red and gold with a crown and garlands, a garland of yellow, red and purple flowers draped over the throne back, a red cushioned footstool, a brass pillar, colourful flower arrangements and a basket of fruit at the base. The figure in orange appears to be a person, based on the saffron robe, long hair and throne setting, though the appearance is uncertain.2008-10-07A seated figure in an orange robe sits on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, bare feet resting on a red footstool.
