A man seated cross-legged on an ornate gold-and-red throne with his palms pressed together in namaste. He wears an orange-red garment with gold border, a white vibhuti line on his forehead, and rudraksha malas around his neck. Gold lion-shaped armrests flank the seat, and a leopard-skin-patterned cloth lies beneath him. Two painted standing guardian figures with multiple arms, gold crowns and gold jewellery stand on either side against a golden arched backdrop. The scene reads as a satsang or darshan setting. Appearance cues for the seated man are a shaved head, orange garment and rudraksha malas, which are insufficient for an identity claim, so the seated man is described by role only.
