A photograph of a seated man in an ornate red throne with white-trimmed armrests, in front of a large golden relief sculpture of hands and figures. He wears an orange-red turban, an orange-red shawl over bare shoulders, a gold ceremonial necklace, and layered garlands of white and gold flowers. He holds a silver staff in one hand and gestures with the other, smiling. A person in white ritual cloth is partially visible at the left edge beside a gold-framed panel and a red cushion. Appearance-based identification is uncertain; he is a seated speaker in saffron-toned robes with garlands and gold ornaments, with a red throne, golden backdrop and a staff, and no readable name appears in the image.
