A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne with a carved gilded backrest, wearing a rust-red turban, a saffron-red robe with a gold sash, a long orange-gold shawl, and a beaded garland. The figure leans forward receiving apples from a kneeling older man in white kurta clothing and an upright bare-chested attendant in saffron and gold robes with rudraksha malas stands behind. A standing woman in white with a rudraksha mala and a red-bordered garment assists nearby. A gold staff stands beside the throne against a red draped backdrop painted with palm trees, with a brass oil lamp at the lower left. Apples are arranged on a tray at the bottom. Appearance-based cues on the seated figure: long orange shawl, turban, ornate gold and red clothing, and a beaded necklace, consistent with a person seated in the role of recipient on the throne.
