A printed copyright and source line overlays the lower right of the image. a person appearance cues are present (ornate gold necklaces, orange shawl, mid-length swept hair), so the central figure is labelled a person as an in-person candidate.2013-06-17A photo inside a hall with red curtains and a golden throne-like seat at the back.
