A figure in a saffron-red robe and matching turban sits on an ornate gold throne with carved backrest and golden lion-head armrests, arms spread wide in an open, welcoming gesture. He wears a long multi-strand white beaded mala with a gold pendant, several beaded bracelets, and rests bare feet on the red-cushioned platform. A tall silver trident stands beside the throne. Behind are garlands of yellow marigolds, white pillars, red drapes, and large printed backdrops of temple spires and ghat steps. The seated figure matches the presentation cues of a person, seated in a position of honour.
