A seated figure with long dark hair sits on an ornate gold throne decorated with garlands of yellow, orange, red and white flowers and a golden arched backrest. He wears white and gold-bordered robes, a white flower garland, a gold necklace with a pendant, and gold bangles, and holds his palms pressed together in namaskar with eyes closed. Red and zebra-striped cushions support him, and a man in white dhoti and shirt kneels at the right in devotion. A white-clad attendant stands at the left edge, and a golden staff rests beside the throne. The setting appears to be a festival hall with a decorated canopy and a flower-strewn dais.

A photograph of a seated figure with long dark hair and palms pressed together in namaste, eyes closed, on an ornate gold throne framed by a large arch of marigold and rose garlands in yellow, red, white and purple. The figure wears a white dhoti-style garment with gold borders, a shawl, a gold necklace with a pendant and a white-and-red flower garland. Behind the throne is a gold-plated decorative backdrop with red-and-black zebra-patterned cushions. A man in white kneels at the lower right, and a partially visible person in white stands at the left edge. Orange marigold garlands line the platform. The figure's appearance is consistent with the page's description of a person event, but the face is not visibly distinctive enough to confirm identity, so the appearance is marked uncertain.2009-01-01A seated man with long dark hair sits on a gilded throne with a zebra-striped red cushion, palms pressed together in namaskar with eyes closed.
