A photograph of a man seated on an orange-upholstered throne chair in an open-sided temple pavilion with a red-painted pillar. He wears a flowing saffron-orange robe, has a red bindi on his forehead, and sits with one bare foot on an orange footstool while holding a golden ceremonial staff across his lap and resting his other hand against his cheek. Behind him stands a deity murti decorated with yellow and red marigold garlands and brass lamps, beside a carved stone shrine niche and a hanging orange curtain. A small white plinth with red fruit stands at left. The man shows an appearance-based candidate for a person through his saffron robe, forehead mark and seated position on a throne, though the cues are limited and the identification is uncertain.
