Close-up photograph of a smiling man wearing an ornate gold crown with floral and jewelled repoussé work, a red bindi on his forehead, and layered garlands of white jasmine and red flowers with gold bead necklaces over a red garment. Behind him is a saffron-orange cloth and green foliage. The crowned figure appears in a ceremonial role, possibly a deity or ritual costume. Appearance-based label: unsure whether this is a person, since the crown and garlands are not sufficient cues alone.
