A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate golden throne (peetha) framed by a large arch of red, yellow, green and purple flower garlands and white floral borders. The seated person wears white clothing, a gold necklace, a flower garland and a red tilak, and smiles. A woman in an orange and white sari with a rudraksha mala and a man in white shirt and dhoti stand before the throne, while a woman in a blue and cream silk sari with a long braid faces it. A man in orange shawl stands at left and a brass vessel rests at lower right. The seated figure's appearance does not clearly meet the identification cues, so the identity is unsure. Four visible adults are present.
