A photograph of a bearded man seated on an ornate white and red throne-chair in a temple-style hall with red draped curtains. He wears a saffron-brown robe, a rudraksha mala with a long rudraksha strand, and a multicolour garland of marigolds and white flowers; he holds a golden staff topped with a finial in his right hand and a golden trident stands beside him. Behind him is a golden canopy with a deity murti showing a figure in a red turban and a second figure with a crown. Potted green plants, brass oil lamps and clay pots surround the throne, and a small table holds a cup. a person seated on the throne in the central role, identified by long swept hair-free head with sacred ash mark, rudraksha mala and ceremonial garland; the appearance cues are moderate, so this is marked unsure.
