He holds a gold ornamental ritual staff or sceptre against his chest with one hand, and a cream textured backdrop with a gilded wooden frame sits behind him.

Close photo of a smiling man with slicked-back dark hair and a red bindi, wearing an orange-saffron shawl over his shoulders. He holds an ornate gold ceremonial object with a curved top against his chest. Behind him is a cream-coloured stone backdrop with a carved wooden frame edged in gold. The shawl is saffron, and the man is the only person visible. No a person cues are sufficient here: the frame shows a seated figure, but the appearance cues are limited to a shawl, so the identity remains uncertain.
