A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold-and-cream throne with a zebra-striped cloth draped over the seat. He wears a rust-red unstitched robe with a gold-bordered edge and an orange beaded shawl, a long gold bead necklace, and a white sandalwood stripe on his forehead. His hands rest on the cushioned armrests and his eyes are lowered. Silver plates with offerings and a brass bell hang nearby, and a small gold deity figure sits on the right. The appearance is consistent with a throne-seated figure in saffron-toned ceremonial dress, but the face and identity cannot be confirmed, so the person is described by role as a seated teacher on a throne.
