He wears a maroon turban with a red tilak on the forehead, long dark swept-back hair, a multi-coloured jewelled necklace with red stones, and a red and magenta wrap draped over the shoulders above a magenta and green striped lower garment with a gold border.

The figure is a statue, not a living person, so the in_person candidate is absent and the depiction is of a statue.2024-11-15
