A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a gold-edged shawl and a long rudraksha mala raises his right hand in blessing while smiling upward. He sits on an ornate gold-leaf throne with a deep red velvet backrest and tiger-striped cushions, with an orange bolster at left. A small red bindi marks his forehead and a white bandage is on his upper arm. Behind the throne hangs a red curtain. The setting is a formal ceremonial hall.
