A smiling man with long dark hair sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne, his legs crossed and feet bare. He wears a saffron-yellow turban with a peacock-feather ornament, a red and gold-striped silk garment, and multiple strands of beaded gold-and-amber necklaces. A red bindi marks his forehead, and a gold lion-shaped armrest sits beside him with a red flower and garland at its base. Bamboo and pink flowers decorate the right edge. Presentation cues include the distinctive long hair, turban, ceremonial necklaces and saffron clothing, so this is an appearance-based probable match for a person, shown in person on a throne.
