A seated man in an orange turban and orange robe sits on an ornate gilded throne with red tiger-striped cushions, hands pressed together in namaste with eyes closed. He wears a white and red flower garland with green leaves and a gold pendant necklace. The throne is framed by yellow and red flower decorations. Overlaid in the upper left corner is printed text reading 28th Chaturmasya, 30 years of age, July 17, 2008, indicating a photo caption rather than the page date. A single person is physically present; the appearance is consistent with the page's reference to a person but cues are limited to a turban, garland and ornate clothing, so identity remains unconfirmed.
