A smiling man with long dark hair sits cross-legged in lotus-style posture on an ornate gold-framed throne with a lion-carved back. He wears an orange-saffron dhoti and wrap, a leopard-print shawl over one shoulder, multiple strands of rudraksha-style beaded malas, a gold necklace and a gold earring, with a red bindi on his forehead. His hands rest palms-up on his knees in a meditation mudra. Beside him stands a red and black ceremonial lion statue, and behind is a warm red-brick courtyard with carved arches and a railing. Appearance-based identification is probable: a person, seated on a throne in saffron robes with malas and gold jewellery.
