A seated man in rust-red saffron-toned robes and a matching red turban sits on an ornate gold throne with a cobra-hood canopy and red cushions, smiling with palms pressed together in a greeting gesture. He wears layered gold necklaces, a gold armband and bangles, and a small tilak with a sacred mark on the turban. Beside the throne stands a silver trident and a rattan side table holds a cup. A gold-framed backdrop shows a starry night sky, with a decorated deity murti and a garland of flowers at left, and a partially visible saffron-clad attendant at right.
