A seated figure in a red robe and tan turban sits on a gilded throne decorated with multicoloured flower garlands in red, yellow, white and purple. He holds a stack of printed white sheets toward the camera. Behind the throne stands a painted blue-and-orange temple-style backdrop with colourful columns. Two carved wooden deity statues flank the throne, one holding a trident-like staff and one with a fan, and a gilded lion and a golden swan-like vehicle stand at the sides on wheeled bases. The floor is pale tile with a small red rug at the throne's base.
