A seated man sits centrally on an ornate golden throne (peetha) with a cobra-hood canopy carved in gold, set against an elaborately carved golden wall with rows of inset blue-purple studs. He wears an orange-red robe draped over one shoulder, a rudraksha mala and a ceremonial gold necklace, a gold belt and armlets. His hands rest on the armrests, and the dais is covered in red cushioning with a red-carpeted platform edged by a metal railing. Based on the visible cues of long swept-back hair, saffron-orange clothing and ornate adornments, this is.
