A bearded man with swept-back dark hair sits smiling in front of an ornate gold repoussé backdrop. He wears a rust-brown robe, a thick garland of red roses with white jasmine strands and green leaves draped over his shoulders, gold beaded necklaces, a gold bracelet, and a white horizontal tilak with a red dot on his forehead. A blurred person in white clothing stands at the left edge of the frame.
