A photograph of a seated figure on a gold-carved throne with red cushion, wearing a saffron-orange garment over red undershirt, long swept-back dark hair, and a red bindi on the forehead; the figure raises a hand in blessing toward a devotee. Two men in white clothes stand bowing, one holding a red-wrapped object, and a boy in a white vest with a red logo leans forward with his hands together. Behind them are red gerbera flowers, white blossoms, and yellow marigold garlands draped on the throne, with a coconut and offerings on a small table. The setting appears to be a formal stage with gold-patterned drapery.
