A seated man on an ornate silver throne with red velvet cushions, centered under a multicoloured tasselled canopy with a fringed red-and-yellow parasol beside him. He wears a maroon turban with a jewelled ornament, a dark maroon robe, a heavy gold multi-strand necklace and a long pink and white flower garland, with rudraksha-style bands on his arms. He rests his hands on the throne arms. A silver stand holds copper and red water bottles. Striped woven mats cover the platform, and a pink and white floral kolam rangoli design decorates the ground in front. Trees are visible behind an open pavilion. The seated man is a candidate for a person by appearance and presentation, so the identity is recorded as probable.
