A man seated on an ornate gold throne with a carved cobra-hood backrest against deep maroon drapes. He wears a rust-brown robe, a pink-and-white garland, a forehead tilak and a gold chain, with his hands resting on his lap. Flanking the throne are gold carved side panels, a gold trident leaning at left and a brass oil lamp at right. A tiger-striped cloth is draped over the seat. The throne-seated figure matches the a person appearance cues (ornate gold seat, garland, saffron-brown robe, ceremonial gold chain), so a person is seated in person on the throne, giving a discourse setting.
