A smiling man in a rust-brown turban and matching rust-brown robe stands at night beside a tall silver staff topped with a leaf-shaped finial engraved with a linga-like emblem. He wears layered rudraksha malas and a heavy gold necklace with a central pendant, a red-brown tilak on his forehead, and a gold-bordered cloth wrapped around his waist. Behind him, out-of-focus orange and purple bokeh lights and a second robed figure in similar brown cloth suggest a procession or evening gathering.
