Outdoors at night, a man in a maroon-red monastic robe sits on an ornate gold-carved throne-style chair beneath a white parasol with wooden ribs. He has one arm raised, fingertips touching his forehead, and holds a dark wooden staff across his body. He is barefoot on a cream and gold shag rug, with a leopard-print cushion on the chair. At left, a hand holds a silver offering tray with small lamps, and a red tasselled decorative hanging stands behind him. Greenery is dimly visible in the dark background.

He holds a silver trident-like staff upright in one hand, raises his other arm behind his head, and smiles with eyes closed. He has a white horizontal tilak and red bindi, and a tiger-striped cloth lies on the throne. Two small brass footrests with yellow fruit sit at his feet on a red carpet, and a water bottle and orange cloth are visible at left.
