A seated man in a grey silk kurta and matching grey dhoti-style silk garment sits on an ornate gold throne with a deep red cushioned back, decorated with carved scrollwork, lion figures and garlands of white jasmine and orange-yellow marigold. An umbrella-like canopy of white and orange flowers hangs above the throne. His palms are pressed together in greeting, he has a red bindi on his forehead and wears a long white and red garland, and he sits barefoot on a red footstool strewn with marigold petals. A banner with a stylised bird logo hangs behind him in a stage setting. a person: long dark swept-back hair and ceremonial garland, seated in the throne role of honour.
