A man seated on an ornate gilded throne with red velvet cushions and lion-shaped armrests, hands pressed together in prayer namaste at his chest. He wears a white dhoti and shawl with gold borders and a dark rudraksha mala. Behind him is a purple-toned photographic backdrop of a large tree, and a golden hanging lamp with leaf-shaped pendants hangs from the ceiling. A palm plant stands at left and a speaker and monitor sit at the lower left on a blue-draped stage. The appearance matches the a person candidate with compatible cues of a rudraksha mala and a throne, but identity is uncertain from appearance alone, so the person is described as a seated speaker in white ritual dress.
