A seated man smiles broadly on an ornate golden throne draped in garlands of white jasmine, red and pink roses, and orange marigolds. He wears a pink turban with a gold-embroidered band and a small red bindi on his forehead, and gold earrings. He is buried chest-deep in loose white flower petals heaped over his body. A golden umbrella-like ceremonial fan or staff stands to the left, and yellow marigolds lie in the foreground. The setting appears to be an outdoor stage.
