A seated figure on an ornate golden throne with lion-head armrests and a brown leather seat speaks to an audience in a dark hall, raising one hand. He wears a red-orange dhoti and draped cloth with a gold border, a dense rudraksha mala of brown beads, gold chains and a gold pendant, a red bindi, and a dark bouffant hairstyle with a jewelled hair ornament. A silver trident stands at the left edge. Several seated people are visible in the foreground and background, some wearing glasses. Given the distinctive presentation cues of swept-back hair, ornate gold, rudraksha and saffron-toned clothing, this is a person giving a discourse from a throne.
