A smiling man sits on a red velvet throne-like seat in front of a backdrop of yellow and orange marigold garlands and gold ornamentation. He wears an orange-saffron shawl edged with gold braid, a heavy gold necklace of large beaded ornaments, and a red bindi on his forehead, with his hair swept back. His head is tilted slightly downward as he smiles. Appearance-based cues for a person include the swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ornate gold necklace, seated in an honoured setting, though identity remains uncertain.
