Indoor photo of a seated figure in a saffron-orange robe and matching saffron head covering, wearing a large pink rose garland, smiling on a gold-and-red ornate throne in front of a painted backdrop of a large banyan tree. A man in a white shirt and cream trousers leans in from the left, reaching toward a white table holding an open red box and offerings, while a man in a pink shirt stands at the right edge facing the seated figure. Several men in white and yellow-shawled attire stand in the background at left. The seated figure is an appearance-based a person candidate, with saffron clothing, a saffron head covering and a pink rose garland on the throne, though the appearance is only moderately distinctive.
