A seated man with eyes closed and palms pressed together in namaskar sits on an ornate gold throne with a deep red velvet back and seat. The throne has carved gold scrollwork, a lion-head armrest on each side, and a gold medallion above showing a deity in relief. He wears a saffron-yellow turban with a peacock-feather and jewelled ornament, a saffron shawl, a red and gold striped dhoti, multiple beaded malas and rudraksha-style necklaces, a red bindi, and red and beaded bracelets. Green bamboo stalks and pink flowers stand on either side, with fresh flowers at the base of the throne. The backdrop is purple.
