A standing man poses against a dark, fiery backdrop with a large lilac full moon at upper right. He is shirtless, wearing a tiger-striped yellow and black shawl draped diagonally across his chest and a tiger-striped waist cloth over maroon harem-style trousers. Rudraksha beads adorn his arms, wrists, waist and ankles, and a gold pendant hangs on a chain. He holds a tall white twisted staff topped with a trident in his left hand, one hand on his hip, and lifts one leg in a stance while smiling upward. A white forehead band and a vertical red mark appear on his forehead, with long dark hair falling behind him. This appears to be a costumed studio portrait; the visible appearance cues are long hair, ornate adornments and a trident, consistent with the page's a person reference, so the identity is probable rather than confirmed.
