A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a long rudraksha-style mala sits on an ornate golden throne with a carved arched backrest and two golden lion heads at the sides. He has a red bindi and tripundra markings and smiles while holding a bell in one hand and a flaming oil lamp or aarti flame in the other. Silver vessels, a brass bowl and a small lit candle sit on a red draped table in front of him, with a dark red curtain behind. Gold bangles and a gold-toned necklace are visible. The scene suggests a puja or aarti performed from the throne. Appearance-based label: a person, seated on the golden peetha performing an aarti with the flame and bell.
