A seated man in a royal blue dhoti-style garment with a bright yellow-orange waist sash sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions. He wears a multi-strand gold and beaded necklace, gold armbands and bracelets, and holds a tall gold-tipped staff upright in his right hand. Behind him a large painted backdrop shows a red processional avenue flanked by crowds and golden gateways, and a spear-like staff rests at the side of the dais. The setting is a stage-like hall with a red carpeted platform in front. The seated man has long swept-back hair and ornate adornments consistent with the page's reference to a person, though this is an appearance-based candidate only.
