A man sits on an ornate silver-and-red throne with a red velvet cushion and a red footstool, bare-chested and barefoot. He wears a rust-orange draped garment with gold border, multiple strands of rudraksha beads, gold om pendants and a gold necklace, and a white and red tilak on his forehead. A large decorative umbrella with red, blue and yellow panels and pom-pom fringe stands at left, and a golden carved deity murti is in the background. The man is an appearance-based a person candidate: long swept-back hair, ornate gold adornments and rudraksha malas, seated on a throne in a ritual setting.
