A seated man with eyes closed in meditation, wearing a loose saffron-orange shawl draped over one shoulder and a long dark rudraksha mala with a large bead cluster at the chest. A red bindi and white vertical tilak mark his forehead, and his hair is swept back. Behind him, an orange stone structure and a black stone figure garlanded with yellow flowers appear in soft focus. Appearance cues are several and distinctive (rudraksha mala, saffron clothing, swept hair), so this is a person seated in meditation, with a shaved-headed priest excluded by the mala and saffron cues.
