A smiling man with short swept-back dark hair sits cross-legged on an ornate gold-leaf throne with a deep red velvet back and seat. He wears a red-orange silk shawl draped over one shoulder and wrapped around the lower body, with a gold-bordered edge, a gold bead necklace with a large gold pendant, and a long beaded necklace of clear and pink crystal beads. A red bindi and white tilak mark his forehead, and a thin red-brown bead band is on his upper arm. A microphone on a stand is in front of him. Gold carved figures decorate the throne arms and base. Faint printed copyright text overlays the lower part of the photo.
