A seated man in a golden ornate throne with a large gilded cobra hood carved above him, in a procession setting outdoors. He wears a rust-orange dhoti-style wrap, a heavy gold ceremonial necklace with a central pendant, rudraksha beads and orange bangles on his arms, a gold crown with a turquoise stone, and a red tilak on his forehead. He sits with hands resting on his knees and smiles. Attendants stand around the throne holding long ceremonial staffs and fans, one with a wide sun-faced circular parasol decorated with a painted sun motif in red and yellow. A figure in a green cap stands at the right edge. The page is a Kumbh Mela shahi snan procession, but the appearance here is only a loose match, so the identity of the seated figure is uncertain.
