A photograph of a figure standing on a raised red-draped platform before a large ornate golden circular arch, backed by a carved stone-textured wall with a garland of yellow, red and green flowers strung across the top. The standing figure has long dark hair and wears an orange-red dhoti or wrap, a patterned sleeveless top, multiple beaded rudraksha-style malas, and bangles. He holds a green-tinted trident upright in his right hand and gestures outward with it. A dark red cushioned throne-like seat sits behind him. Warm red and amber lighting bathes the scene, and flower decorations line the platform edge in the foreground.
