A photograph of a figure seated on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, wearing a rust-orange robe and a red bindi, one hand raised near the face. Behind the throne a large dark deity murti stands with a trident and a multicoloured flower garland, and a gold trident hangs at the top. Strands of red, yellow, green and white flowers frame the scene against a dark starry backdrop. The image is rotated sideways. The seated figure appears to be a person in saffron clothing, though the appearance is uncertain.
