A seated man in a rust-red turban, rust-red and gold-bordered robe and a heavy gold ceremonial necklace with a large gold pendant sits on a gold-trimmed throne with a tiger-striped cushion and a golden lion figure beside him. Behind him is a backdrop of marigold, rose and white garlands. Standing at left, a shaven-headed priest in orange robes and sacred thread bends forward, holding a small green leaf-wrapped offering, while the seated man raises a hand to his head. Appearance-based candidate, unsure, as he wears a turban and ornate gold necklace on a throne but facial and presentation cues are not sufficient to confirm identity from this photo alone.
