A man in maroon robes sits on an ornate gold throne decorated with yellow, green and purple flower garlands, with hands folded in his lap and feet bare on a red cushion. He wears a saffron-orange turban and a long wooden bead necklace. Behind him a large orange banner shows Kannada script and the word Dasara, and to the right stands a painted or printed deity image with a crown and red floral garland. A throne and banner setting suggests a formal public event. Appearance cues of turban and bead necklace are present, but identity is uncertain from appearance alone.
