A man seated on an ornate throne smiles broadly and raises both palms toward the viewer in greeting. He wears a gold crown, a red-orange cloth draped over his body, layered gold necklaces with a large gold pendant, a purple orchid garland and gold bangles. A red bindi marks his forehead. Behind him a backdrop of red, orange and yellow marigold and rose garlands frames the throne, with gold lion-head carvings at the lower edges and a trident-topped staff at left. The appearance cues of long swept hair are not clearly visible, so identity is uncertain; the printed page indicates a satsang event.
