A smiling man with swept-back dark hair, a red bindi and white forehead markings sits barefoot on a red velvet throne with a gold lion-armed carved backrest behind him. He wears a rust-orange robe over one shoulder, a long necklace of gold beads and a gold chain, and gold hoop earrings, and holds a polished silver staff with a finial. A tiger-striped cloth covers the throne seat and a headset microphone is visible at his ear.
