He wears saffron-orange robes edged with gold braid, a shawl draped over one shoulder, and a long beaded rudraksha mala with a central medallion. His palms are pressed together in anjali mudra. Marigold-style garlands of white and red flowers hang along the top of the throne backdrop, and a white rug covers the floor. The figure is a single physical person; the description does not establish an identity from appearance.
