A photo of a seated man on a golden-armrested brown leather throne flanked by golden lion heads, smiling with hands folded in his lap. He wears a rust-red robe, a long rudraksha mala, and a small red forehead mark. A gold trident stands at the left against a cream panelled backdrop with blue and pink lotus tiles. Around him, about a dozen seated devotees face him: women in red, teal, pink and cream saris and salwar, a man in white with a red shoulder cloth in the foreground, and others with palms pressed together. Trays with fruit and offerings sit on a table at right. The seated man's appearance is consistent with the a person description, so the appearance-based label applies.
