A man with short dark hair and a red bindi sits cross-legged in meditation on an orange cushion placed on a wooden platform, wearing a saffron-orange shawl and orange robe with his hands resting in his lap. Beside him on a sand-bordered mat stands a small brass kalasha-style pot. Behind him a black stone Nandi bull wears a beaded rudraksha-style garland and sits on a red pedestal, with dark stone deity figures and palm trees in the background, and a wooden cart stands to the left. The figure appears to be a person, identified by the saffron-orange robes, meditative seated posture and ceremonial setting, though the appearance is not certain enough to confirm.
