A man seated on an ornate silver throne at night, framed by blurred foreground objects including silver and red ceremonial items. He wears a maroon-red wrap over his shoulders, a long multi-strand beaded necklace, a pendant, bangles, and a white and red tilak on his forehead. His hands rest together in his lap and he smiles toward the camera. Soft blue and purple lighting and haze surround him, with a blurred silver staff or ceremonial rod at upper left. Appearance cues of long swept hair, saffron-maroon clothing, ornate necklaces and a throne suggest a person seated in a ceremonial role, though identity is uncertain.
