A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with carved floral and fan-shaped gilding behind him, against deep maroon velvet drapes. He wears an orange-saffron cloth draped over his body and a long necklace of gold beads with a gold chain, a white vertical forehead mark and a red bindi, and small gold earrings. His hair is swept back. One arm rests on a gold lion-head armrest while he looks off to the side, appearing to speak.
