Close-up photograph of a smiling man seated before an ornate gilded throne with floral and scrollwork carving. He wears a tall black turban with a jewelled ornament at the front, a white vertical tilak with a red bindi on his forehead, and a small microphone clipped near his face. Around his neck are layered rudraksha malas with gold bead ornaments, a gold coin pendant, and a large gold pendant, over an orange-brown garment. A gold-coloured staff or rod rests beside him. The page credits the event to a person, but appearance cues are only partly distinctive, so the identity is recorded as uncertain.
