Night photograph on the open deck of a boat at a river or waterfront, with city lights reflecting on dark water behind. A man seated on a silver-framed throne (peetha) wears a rust-red and maroon dhoti with a gold-yellow shawl, a long rudraksha mala, and a heavy gold ceremonial necklace; he has a vertical tilak on his forehead and gold armbands, and his hands rest in his lap. Behind him a second man in a dark shirt is partly visible. White railings with red finials frame the deck, and a bottle sits near the foot of the throne. Appearance-based candidate: a person, with rudraksha mala, gold necklace and saffron-toned clothing as qualifying cues.
