Photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold-and-silver throne with a golden lion armrest, inside a hall with a red backdrop and gold script reading "Awakening". The seated figure wears an orange-red turban with a small ornament, a brown-orange robe and a beaded necklace, and sits with hands together. A bowing man in a grey-beige kurta and white dhoti offers a saffron-yellow cloth draped over his arm toward the throne. Standing around are men in saffron and orange robes and an orange turban, a man in a white kurta on the right, and a bare-chested attendant in maroon cloth. Red and gold carpet covers the floor. The a person field is unsure because the seated figure's appearance does not clearly meet the identification cues, and the page does not say he is present.
