A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with a carved backrest, shown bare-chested and bearded. He wears an elaborate gold crown set with red, green and pink stones and a crescent ornament, a white tilak with a red dot on his forehead, and layered orange rudraksha malas with gold beads, a pearl necklace and a gold pendant. His raised left hand is in a mudra and his right hand holds a gold trident. The background is a soft green blur. Strong visual cues match a person depiction of a seated deity-form figure, shown as a performer in costume rather than a devotee, with no visible audience.
