A photograph of a ceremonial seated figure on an ornate silver throne against a backdrop of yellow and red marigold garlands and a jeweled arch. The seated man wears a rust-red robe, a heavy gold necklace and gold waist ornament, and a dark turban-style tied hair with a red tilak; he smiles and holds an orange fruit. Before him kneels a long-haired devotee in orange robes with dreadlocks, and a standing attendant in orange garments with rudraksha beads holds an object near the throne. Red floor cloth is scattered with petals. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the presentation cues described on the page, but the image does not allow confident identification, so the seated figure is recorded as a person by appearance only.
