A man with swept-back dark hair sits on an orange upholstered throne-like chair inside a stone temple pavilion. He wears an orange draped robe wrapped over one shoulder and holds a small golden vessel in his hands while resting his bare feet on a footstool with a dark patterned mat. Behind him stands a stone carved shrine niche with a figure, a garlanded deity murti in a gold-framed alcove with red, yellow and white marigold garlands, and orange curtains hang beside a red railing. A small golden bell or lamp sits on the armrest. The setting appears to be a temple visit or pada puja darshan.
