A seated man in an orange-saffron robe sits on an ornate gold throne richly carved with floral and scrollwork motifs and draped with garlands of yellow marigolds and purple and magenta flowers. A gold-and-brown cushion rests behind him, and a microphone on a flexible stand is positioned near his face. He wears a long gold bead necklace over the robe, a small red bindi on his forehead, and has bare feet resting on a gold footstool decorated with flower petals. He appears to be speaking. The seated figure is an appearance-based probable candidate for a person, given the saffron robe, gold beads and throne, but the cues are not distinctive enough to confirm identity.
