A man seated on an ornate gold throne with a large carved gold backrest, wearing a saffron-orange sannyasi garment with a gold-bordered sash draped over one shoulder. He wears a heavy gold bead necklace, a thin silver chain with a red pendant, a dark armband, and a red bindi on his forehead. His hands are folded in his lap and he gazes forward with a calm expression. The foreground shows the back of another person's head at the lower left. Red and orange fabric and garland tassels frame the throne. Appearance-based label: a person, seated in person on the throne.
