A seated man smiles at the camera, bare-chested, wearing dense multi-strand rudraksha malas in orange-brown, heavy gold necklaces with a central pendant, orange-brown rudraksha armbands and bracelets, gold rings, and a red dhoti-style cloth. He sits on a throne-like seat with an ornate silver-toned backdrop, holding a long silver staff with a carved handle, and a silver stick lies across the foreground. A white sandal-paste band and red bindi mark his forehead. The dark background and warm lighting give a formal portrait feel.
