A standing man in a red-maroon dhoti and matching upper wrap stands beside an ornate gold throne carved with lion heads and a tiger-striped red cushion. He wears a black wound turban, a multicolour garland of pink, yellow and white flowers, rudraksha and gold ceremonial necklaces, and gold armbands. His right hand rests on a golden lion armrest near a golden trident, while flower petals lie at his bare feet. The person has distinctive ceremonial cues of a black turban, ornate gold adornments and a sacred red wrap, consistent with the page's a person label, but the appearance is only partially clear.2016-05-20November 19 20172017-11-19November 19 20172017-11-19Photograph of a ceremonial scene in a stone-walled hall with carved wooden screens.
