A man sits frontally against a painted backdrop of pale gold and blue-grey tones. He has long, dark, wavy hair swept back, a horizontal white forehead band with a red dot, and a tall tiered rudraksha crown above the forehead. He wears a leopard-print shawl over bare shoulders and a heavy layered necklace of dark rudraksha beads and large gold beads, plus a gold chain. The appearance of long swept hair, a rudraksha crown, leopard shawl and ornate gold necklaces is consistent with a person presence, seated in front of a stage backdrop.
