A photograph of a seated man on a decorated throne framed by yellow and red flower garlands, wearing a large gold crown, a maroon robe, layered gold necklaces, a pink lotus garland and gold armlets. Two young attendants in saffron-orange cloth flank him, one on the left with a rudraksha mala and one on the right with a white ash mark, both looking toward the central figure. The throne is draped in a leopard-print cloth with gold carved sides, and the background shows pink lighting and marigold decorations. The central figure has distinctive crown and ornate maroon-and-gold dress cues consistent with the page's reference to a person, so he is marked as a probable identification by appearance only.
