A seated figure on an ornate gilded throne with carved lion-head arms and a deep maroon cushion, shown only from the waist down. The figure wears an orange-saffron dhoti and orange shawl draped over the lap, a white undergarment visible at the waist, and a beaded red-and-gold waist ornament. Bare feet rest on small brass cups at the base of the throne, scattered with white flowers on a fringed rug. Behind stands a red floral backdrop with a potted plant at left and a gold-clad attendant's fabric at the right edge. No face is visible; the scene reads as a formal seated darshan setting.
