A man with long, swept-back dark hair stands in front of a terracotta-coloured wall, wearing an orange saffron wrap draped over one shoulder and a long rudraksha mala hanging to his waist, with a red bindi and white vertical forehead markings. He stands with his hands clasped at his waist, gazing to the side. In the foreground a brass kalasha-style vessel and a lit oil lamp sit on a table covered with grains or rice. Behind him hangs a framed picture of a blue-skinned deity with a companion figure, and above is a red banner with white text and a blue sign.
