A man seated cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a large arched backrest carved with floral scrollwork. He wears a rust-brown robe with a gold-bordered wrap, a pink and white flower garland, a gold necklace and a red bindi on his forehead. He has long dark hair and a moustache, with his hands resting on his knees. Flanking the throne are gold figurative pillars, one bearing a trident, and a brass oil lamp stands at right. Red and gold flowers sit on a small table at left. a person is described as a seated figure in rust robes and a garland on a gilded throne; appearance cues include long swept hair, a garland and ceremonial gold adornment, so the identification is uncertain and is recorded only in the a person field.
