A photograph of a man seated on an ornate golden throne with a tiger-striped cloth draped over the seat, set against maroon velvet drapery. He wears an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, a long beaded rudraksha-style mala necklace, and a red tilak on his forehead, and rests his hands on the armrests. Around the dais stand gilded statues of figures holding tridents and staffs, including a seated deity figure with a trident and several standing attendant figures. A red carpet covers the floor. The person is seated in a ceremonial pose; the image is a photograph and the identity is an appearance-based candidate only, with a clear tilak and mala but no certain identification.
