A photograph of a seated person with eyes closed and a broad smile, sitting on a red and dark-maroon striped cushioned throne. The person wears a maroon garment with gold-toned border, a long red and white flower garland, heavy gold necklaces including a large gold pendant, gold armlets and bangles, and a red bindi. Behind the throne is a large arrangement of yellow, orange, red and white marigold-style flowers. Gold lion-form figures flank the seat, and silver ceremonial staffs with spear-tipped finials stand on either side. The image shows a ceremonial throne setting with flower decorations and gold ornaments.
