He wears a long orange shawl and a long rudraksha mala with dark beads, a dark turtleneck under the robe, and a red bindi on his forehead. His hands rest in his lap and he gazes to the side with a slight smile. Behind him sits an older bearded man in an orange kurta with wire-rimmed glasses and a red mark on his forehead. On the wall beside them is a white board with Sanskrit text in black script, including the heading श्री शिवपश्चा. The scene is an outdoor temple area.
