A smiling man with swept-back dark hair and a red bindi sits on an ornate gold throne with carved, scrolled backrest. He wears an orange saffron robe with a gold-bordered shawl and a long ceremonial necklace of gold beads. He raises his right hand in blessing toward the top of a dark-haired head in the foreground, the back of a person's head. Behind him is a blurred green background.
