Photograph of a smiling man seated in profile on a stage, wearing an ornate gold crown with floral and jewelled embossing, a white and red jasmine-and-rose garland, a gold armlet on his upper arm, and a red garment, with a tilak mark on his forehead. Behind him stand tall yellow, green and blue banners decorated with diamond-pattern borders, leaf motifs and a white bird in a blue circle. The man is shown from the side and partly cropped by the banners and a dark head in the lower right foreground. Appearance-based candidate for a person given the golden crown, garland and throne-like seated presentation, though the face and identity are uncertain.
