The seated figure wears a golden crown, a heavy gold necklace and bracelets, and a long flower garland, and is smiling as he touches his crown. To the left, a man in a white shirt and white dhoti holds a woven basket, and a second man in white with a patterned shawl offers a brass tray of flowers or offerings beside a golden trident. A golden lion figure stands at the right edge, and a microphone stand is visible. Several other people in orange and white clothing sit in the background.2016-12-23July 22 20132013-07-22June 05 20122012-06-05A photograph of a seated man with long dark hair, bare-chested and wearing a rust-orange wrap, adorned with heavy gold necklaces, a red and green flower garland and gold armlets, receiving a ceremonial turban-style headpiece in pink and gold being placed on his head by a standing man in white ritual clothing. Behind them is a dense arrangement of yellow, purple and red flowers and a painted tree-canopy backdrop, with a brass oil lamp at left and an orange cushion at right. The scene suggests a felicitation or ceremonial honouring, with the seated man's appearance matching the a person cues of long swept-back hair, gold ornaments and saffron-orange clothing, while the standing man in white is a priest or devotee.2013-01-06January 06 20132013-01-06April 21 20132013-04-21A seated man in an orange-brown robe sits on a red-cushioned throne decorated with a large arch of multicoloured flower garlands in red, yellow, purple, white and orange. He wears a long garland of white and multicoloured flowers, a heavy gold-beaded necklace and rudraksha-style beads, with a gold bangle on his upper arm and a tilak on his forehead. He holds green leaves that a bare-chested man in a pink and gold turban, seated at his left, is offering to him. A silver trident stands at the right edge beside a gold lion-shaped armrest. The setting appears to be an outdoor ceremonial gathering with a white wall behind.2015-07-18June 05 20122012-06-05December 23 20162016-12-23
