A standing man with long dark hair and a white-and-red forehead mark wears an orange wrap over a red-orange top, smiling as he rests one hand on an ornate gilded throne. The throne has a gold canopy with hanging bells, a carved gold backrest with a central medallion, and a deep maroon velvet seat and cushion set against a red wall. The pictured man is an appearance-based a person: long swept hair and saffron-orange clothing are present, and he stands by the throne, though the image alone does not settle identity.
