A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold throne with a tall gilded backrest and red cushions, with carved lion-head armrests. He wears a long flower garland of white, pink and orange blossoms, rudraksha and gold necklaces, gold armlets and a rust-red robe, and holds a brass handbell by a chain in his right hand with eyes closed. Oil lamps hang from chains on either side and a blurred figure sits in the foreground. Appearance-based candidate: a person, seated in person on the throne, identified by his long swept hair, ornate gold jewellery and rudraksha cues.
