A photograph of a man seated on an ornate silver throne with lion-head armrests and a repoussé backrest, a silver trident leaning at left. He wears a red-orange robe, multiple rudraksha malas, white and pink flower garlands, a gold necklace, and a tilak on his forehead, and he smiles with eyes closed. Two women in the foreground face him: one with long dark hair in a braid wears a cream garment, and the other in a maroon sari with gold border holds out a folded red cloth. A flower garland hangs at left.
