A seated person with closed eyes and a faint smile sits on an ornate throne decorated with banks of yellow marigolds and red, white and green garlands. The person wears a dark maroon-brown silk garment with a gold-bordered cloth, heavy gold necklaces, a large gold pendant, gold armlets and bangles, and a red-and-white garland of beads across the chest. A red bindi marks the forehead. A gold lion-headed carving stands at the right edge, and leafy greenery and a green canopy frame the top. The seat is covered in red fabric with a tiger-stripe pattern. The scene appears to be a ceremonial sitting or darshan setting.
