Photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold throne with a red velvet seat and gilded arched backrest, against a dark stone wall with hanging brass lamps. He wears an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, a light golden turban-style headwear, a long multicoloured garland of pink, yellow and green flowers, and a rudraksha mala with a gold pendant. His feet rest on a golden footstool decorated with pink lotus flowers. Kneeling at left in orange robes, a priest holds a silver multi-wick aarti lamp with flames toward the seated figure. A brass lamp burns on the left. A portrait-style figure shown as a person seated in ceremonial honour with a ritual aarti being performed.
