A man with shoulder-length dark hair sits smiling on an ornate gilded throne with a red cushioned seat, draped in orange-saffron robes and layered garlands of red, white and yellow flowers, with red rudraksha-style beads around his neck. The throne is decorated with bright marigolds, orange gerbera, purple blooms and palm fronds, and a red-cushioned footstool stands in front. Behind him, water sprays across a red-tinted tank where devotees bathe. An orange-robed attendant sits to the right. A watermarked-style faint emblem appears in the corner, which is ignored. Several people are partially visible in the water and along the edges, with a few faces visible at left.
