A photograph of a stage set for a festival event, with a single seated man on an ornate gilded throne with red cushions and lion-armrest carvings. He wears a cream-coloured embroidered kurta and white dhoti, with long dark hair, seated with hands resting on his lap. The throne is framed by a golden canopy with white jasmine-like hanging strands, garlands of red and yellow flowers, and tall banana-leaf backdrops lit in green and yellow light. Potted flower arrangements and a small green tree stand beside the dais. a person candidate: long swept-back hair and cream ceremonial attire, but identity uncertain from appearance alone.
