A photograph in an ornate hall shows a seated man on a golden lion-armed throne with a red tiger-striped cushion. He wears a rust-orange robe, a flower garland and a light bracelet, and he is bare-chested and barefoot. Several tiers of bananas are arranged on a tray in front of him, and a devotee in white kneels to offer fruit. A woman in a white sari with a rudraksha mala stands at right beside another person in a pink sari. Carved golden pillars and a red lattice screen fill the background. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the page's a person reference, but cues are limited, so identity remains uncertain.
