A smiling man in saffron-orange robes with a gold-bead mala necklace sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, feet resting on an orange cushion. He wears a small red tilak and a headband. Arched cream columns frame the scene, with a painted deity murti of a multi-armed goddess seated on a lotus in the arch behind him, flanked by peacock-like figures. A striped woven rug runs down the steps, scattered with white flower petals. Tamil script is visible above the doorway. The seated figure shows distinctive saffron robes and a gold mala, a person on the throne.
