A frontal portrait depicts an adult male seated on an ornate golden throne in what appears to be an indoor ceremonial setting in Gwagwarwa, Nigeria. The subject, an individual with dark skin, faces forward with a neutral expression, his lower face partially obscured by a translucent yellow scarf draped over his chin and neck. He wears a bright yellow turban with two prominent upward-curving adornments and a long, dark blue robe meticulously embroidered with intricate gold patterns. Beneath the blue robe, a lighter-colored, patterned garment is visible. A ceremonial sword or dagger, encased in a silver-colored scabbard featuring green gemstone inlays and a brown/red tassel, rests diagonally across his upper torso. A dark beaded necklace with a similar tassel is partially visible beneath the sword. The golden throne exhibits elaborate carvings, including a discernible lion's head on the right armrest and a tall backrest. The backrest's central panel is maroon with gold Latin script, which reads "IDRIS BARDEN GWAGWARMA". The background features a brown and beige checkered pattern on the left and a vibrant, multi-colored geometric mosaic pattern (blue, green, yellow, gold) on the right. Light-colored tiled flooring and a step are visible in the lower right foreground.
