A seated man on an ornate silver throne with carved floral and scroll detailing and leopard-print cushions, wearing a rust-red dhoti and a red shawl draped over bare shoulders, a white tilak on his forehead, and a long white jasmine garland with red flower accents hanging to his feet. He smiles broadly and touches the garland. Beside him, a man in a white polo shirt and jeans, with an orange silk shawl over his shoulder, leans in toward him at the side of the throne.
