A photograph in profile of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with a red velvet cushion. He wears a white turban with a gold brooch and has long dark hair falling behind his shoulders. A small red mark is on his forehead and he is smiling. Behind him stands an ornate brass lamp stand with figures of animals and deities, and a second man in dark clothing is partly visible beside it. A red and black embroidered cloth with tasselled fringe hangs at left. The turban, long hair and throne match a person only partly, so identity is uncertain.
