A photograph of a man seated on an ornate silver throne with intricate repoussé floral and figural carvings. He has long dark hair wrapped in a high black turban-like crown, a white tripundra with a red central mark on his forehead, and wears a garland of red, orange and yellow flowers over bare shoulders. A shaved-headed, bare-backed priest in the foreground faces him with both palms raised toward the seated man, the priest wearing a sacred thread and white sacred ash marks on his back. Another pair of raised hands appears at the left edge. Behind the throne a dark backdrop with a blue-lit area. Seated figure appears to be a person by cues of long hair, crown-like turban, ornate garland and throne seating.
