A seated man in a red-orange turban and matching saffron-red garment sits on an ornate pink cushioned throne with gold carved lion-head armrests. He wears a heavy necklace of gold beads and multi-strand rudraksha malas across his chest and holds a small object near his mouth with one hand. A red bindi marks his forehead. Behind him are gilded deity statues and golden ceremonial lamps. The photograph is in the archive's gold-throne stage setting.
