A man seated cross-legged on a fur-covered mat in front of an ornate gold arch, holding a long silver staff upright in his left hand. He wears an orange-red cloth draped over his body, layered rudraksha malas with silver-toned pendants, a ceremonial necklace, and a yellow-and-red tilak on his forehead. A small red dot marks the centre of his brow. Behind him, gold carved panels frame a stage with orange cloth and garlands of red flowers, with a painted backdrop of gears. Appearance-based candidate: a person, seated in a throne-like setting with a staff and rudraksha malas.
