A seated man in a rust-red saffron-toned robe sits on an ornate silver throne encrusted with coloured jewel-like stones and carved with lotus and floral scrollwork. The throne's armrests are carved lion or elephant heads, and the seat cushions are striped orange-and-black tiger-print fabric. He wears a long pink and white flower garland, a heavy gold necklace with a large pendant, gold bangles on both wrists and a gold armlet. A white vibhuti line marks his forehead, and his eyes are closed in meditation with a faint smile. His right hand rests on the throne arm and his left hand on his thigh. Foliage and a hanging cord are visible in the background. Printed copyright text runs across the lower right of the photo.
