Behind him a very large printed portrait of a smiling man with long hair fills the wall, framed by marigold garlands and white daisy flowers scattered on the floor. The seated man has long dark hair, a gold necklace, and bare feet on a red cloth. The seated man is a physical person; the large smiling face is a printed portrait, not a physical person.
