A seated figure in a red-and-maroon turban with a red bindi and gold earrings smiles with eyes closed, wearing a long red-and-gold garland of red beads and green leaves, a gold ornate necklace, and a rudraksha-style ceremonial adornment; the figure is seated before an ornate gold peetha/throne with a gold lion-like statue beside it. A woman in a red shawl and gold bangles reaches toward a steel plate of savoury snacks, while a bare-backed person in a white and gold-bordered dhoti with a red thread sits facing away. Nearby gold pillars and a dark red curtain frame the scene. Appearance-based identification is probable: a person seated in the centre on the throne, with turban, garlands and gold cues.
