A smiling man sits cross-legged against a sandstone wall, wearing an orange-saffron draped cloth with a gold border over one shoulder, bare-chested, with a long gold beaded necklace and rudraksha bead armlets and bracelet. A rudraksha bead headband rests on his swept-back dark hair, and he has a red tilak on his forehead. Beside him a blue and gold ceremonial cushion or fan with gold floral embroidery is visible. Cues consistent with a person include the rudraksha headband, saffron cloth and ornate gold necklace; appearance alone does not confirm identity.
