A man with long dark hair and a gold-coloured headband sits on an ornate golden throne shaped like a hooded cobra with a golden seven-hooded snake canopy behind him. He wears a peach-coloured sash over the shoulder, yellow silk trousers, a brown-and-gold waist cloth, a multi-strand gold necklace and a red-beaded mala, and gold bracelets. He sits on stacked gold cobra coils, gesturing with his hands while speaking into a microphone on a stand. Behind him are peacock-feather painted backdrops, white and pink flower garlands hang from the top of the frame, and a small lit oil lamp is visible. Two gold-carved pedestal panels flank the throne, with a water bottle on a small table at left.
