A man seated on an ornate throne with palms pressed together in a namaste greeting. He wears a deep maroon-red turban with a jeweled brooch and a plume, gold ornaments, a gold chain and pink lotus-style flower garlands. The throne behind him is decorated with garlands of white jasmine and red, yellow, and purple flowers, with gold-and-white circular medallions. Two golden lion-headed armrest figures flank the throne, and a gold-toned ornamental backdrop rises above. A microphone stand is visible at right. The man is a person seated in a throne with garlands; the appearance cues include the crown-like turban, ornate jewelry, and multiple garlands.
