A man seated on an ornate gilded throne with a high carved golden back and red cushions, draped over a tiger-striped cloth. He wears a reddish-brown robe, a long garland of white, pink and orange flowers with gold-coloured beads, gold bangles on both arms, and a red tilak on his forehead. He is smiling with hands resting in his lap. Hanging brass bells and small oil lamps flank the throne, and a golden lion figure sits at the left edge. The appearance-based label a person applies: the long swept-back hair, ornate gold throne setting, and garland fit the presentation, but the face is not used for identification.
