A photograph of a seated man on an ornate golden throne with red cushions and a tiger-skin cloth beneath him. He wears an orange-saffron robe, a brown rudraksha-style mala, and a long pink, white and green flower garland. He extends his hands as devotees on either side offer folded currency notes; a young man in a pink-orange shirt and glasses leans in from the left, and a woman in a red-bordered white sari sits at the right. Behind the throne are gold-toned carved panels and a golden lion-head armrest, with a brass trident and lamps at the edges. The figure matches the a person appearance cues: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, seated in a throne-like setting.
