A photo of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with a red cushioned back, dressed in rust-orange robes and a matching draped shawl. He wears heavy gold necklaces with bead-like pendants, gold armlets, and gold bangles, with a vertical tilak and white sacred ash on his forehead. His long dark hair falls past his shoulders. He is mixing or offering food from a large ornate silver bowl with his right hand, eyes lowered. Behind him a gold ceremonial lamp stand and red drapery are visible, and a partially visible attendant in white stands at the right edge. The page describes a Maheshwara Puja offering of food to the Master; this is a presentation-appearance-based label only: a person, seated and handling the offering.
