A seated man in ceremonial white dhoti and cream turban sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, wearing layered gold and beaded necklaces and a rudraksha-style mala. The throne and a gold stand are decorated with garlands of yellow, purple and white flowers. Behind him a deity murti in red and silver ornaments stands on a gold pedestal. A large orange backdrop shows a smiling man in an orange turban beside the word Dasara and Kannada script. Appearance cues are limited, so the figure is described by role as a seated person on a throne; the identity is uncertain.
