A smiling bearded man sits on an ornate silver throne with lion-figure armrests and leopard-print cushions, speaking into a microphone on a stand. He wears a rust-orange turban decorated with jewelled ornaments, an orange-saffron robe, layered rudraksha malas, arm bands of beads and a gold necklace, with a garland of yellow and white flowers and green leaves draped over him. Behind him is an elaborately carved silver backdrop and a saffron-and-gold panel with yellow floral decorations. A silver staff stands at his right, and small brass and silver vessels sit on a side table. Appearance-based label: a person, seated in the central role on the throne.
