A photograph of a man seated on an ornate silver throne with a leopard-print cushion, holding a tall silver staff with a finial in his right hand. He wears a large gold crown with a fan-shaped back, a red-saffron wrap over the shoulders, a heavy gold pendant necklace, a long gold-beaded mala and ornate beaded armlets. A red tilak marks his forehead. Behind him is a silver-embossed backdrop and a tiered temple tower on the left, with a silver stand with a brass bowl at lower left. He smiles and looks down, appearing to be the seated central figure of a ritual or darshan. Visible appearance suggests a person, seated on a throne with ceremonial regalia and crown.
