A bearded man in a rust-brown turban with a small crescent ornament sits on an ornate golden throne upholstered in leopard-print fabric, speaking into a microphone on a stand. He wears layered gold and white beaded garlands, a rust-brown robe, gold bangles and an earring. Behind him a richly embroidered arch of green, blue and red with jewelled trim and orange tassels frames the throne against a deep maroon curtain. A golden animal figure rests on the armrest at left. The scene suggests a seated discourse on stage. a person: the seated speaker's appearance has a turban, layered gold garlands and ceremonial throne, but the cues are not distinctive enough to confirm identity.
