Close photo of a smiling man with long dark hair, wearing a pale silver-grey turban and a red bindi. He wears a pink and purple embroidered kurta with blue and gold sequin detailing, and a layered garland of white flowers, red roses and purple blossoms with heavy gold bead necklaces. Behind him is ornate gold repoussé metalwork with scrolls and a central bird motif. Appearance cues are a turban, long hair, embroidered ceremonial dress and gold necklaces, but the face alone does not establish identity, so the appearance is uncertain.
