A seated man with long dark hair, a red bindi and a gold-bordered cream and white shawl over his shoulders, eyes closed in meditation, sits before a richly ornamented golden throne decorated with garlands of yellow, orange, red and purple flowers. A large silver oil lamp with a bird-shaped finial stands at left on a white-draped platform, and marigold garlands fill the foreground. Pale pink and red fabric canopies frame the stage. The seated man is a person by appearance: long swept hair, ceremonial gold necklaces and a shawl, seated on a flower-decorated throne.
