A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a long rudraksha mala sits on an ornate golden throne decorated with a garland of yellow and red flowers, beneath a golden canopy. He has long dark hair and wears a gold necklace. Devotees surround him: a young man in orange dhoti on the left touches his shoulder, a woman in a blue sari with folded hands stands in front, and a row of women in saris and salwar kameez stand on the right. A large backdrop shows a smiling man in white and a deity form in red and gold with a crown. Appearance-based candidate, a person seated on the peetha; the page does not place him at this event, so a person is unsure.
