A seated man in a maroon-red robe sits on an ornate silver throne encrusted with jewel-coloured stones in green, red, purple and gold. He wears long pink and white lotus garlands, a heavy gold chest ornament and gold armlets, holding a white flower bunch in one hand and a curved ceremonial blade in the other. Striped tiger-skin cushions and silver elephant-head armrests flank him, and a white-haired attendant in white stands at the left edge. Wearing white sacred ash marks on the forehead and a dark bindi, the central figure appears to be the a person, though the identification is uncertain from appearance alone. Dark foliage and a strung line of small pennants appear behind the throne in an outdoor setting.
