A standing man on a red stage floor holds a silver trident in his left hand and raises his right arm to hold a red and gold embroidered ceremonial umbrella with white fringe overhead. He wears a red turban, red shawl with gold border, a leopard-print cloth wrap over red dhoti-style lower garment with gold border, layered rudraksha mala beads and a heavy gold necklace with a large pendant, plus red beaded bracelets on his arms. Behind him stands an ornate gold-leaf throne with red velvet back and red tiger-striped cushions. The scene is a staged ceremonial display with a decorated backdrop.
