He wears multiple strands of rudraksha beads with white pearl beads, a pearl necklace with a rudraksha pendant, and rudraksha armlets; long dark hair falls past his shoulders and he has a red tilak on his forehead. His right hand is raised in a blessing gesture while his left rests on his knee. In the foreground, a blurred hand holds a lit oil lamp, and another person is partly visible at the lower edge.
