Photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gilded throne carved with lion heads and a tiger-striped cushion, backed by a floral garland arrangement of yellow, red and green marigolds and roses. The seated man wears an orange-saffron robe with a yellow sash, a long garland of red and white flowers, gold necklaces and bangles, and has his feet resting on a tray of flowers. Two women in white ritual clothes sit at the front, one with a red shawl, and a woman with a white-striped forehead sits behind them. In front of the throne are silver plates and bowls of marigolds, rose petals and fruit, with hanging brass bells and oil lamps above. The seated figure is an appearance-based a person candidate from the saffron robe, floral garland and throne cues, with the page indicating his presence at this event.
