A photograph of an ornate gold throne set against red curtains. A man seated on the throne wears a rust-red turban with gold ornaments, a rust-red garment, a pink-and-white flower garland and gold jewellery. Two sannyasis in saffron-orange robes stand before him; one has long hair, is bare-chested with an orange shawl, and holds a small ritual vessel. The seated figure appears to be the a person, identified by the turban, flower garland and throne seating, while the attendants are described by role. Leopard-print cushions and a gold lion-form armrest surround the throne.

The attendant on the left holds a silver staff and a rudraksha mala while the attendant on the right extends his hands toward the seated figure, marked with white sacred ash.
