A seated man in an orange sleeveless robe smiles while holding a sheet of paper up beside a microphone on a stand. He sits on an ornate gold throne with a deep red velvet cushion, a gilded lion carving on its armrest, and a golden canopy with tassels above. Behind him stand a palm plant and a vase of yellow and magenta carnations, with a blue drape and a partly visible banner on the wall. A bottle of water sits on the stage near his bare feet, and a partially visible person in orange stands at the left edge. The figure's appearance is ambiguous from the image alone, so identity is not asserted.
