A smiling man stands barefoot atop a red cushioned platform in front of an ornate gilded throne with a large repoussé arch behind it. He wears an orange-saffron dhoti with a gold border, a bare upper body wrapped with a leopard-print cloth, and many red and white rudraksha malas across his chest and arms. He holds a silver trident in one hand and rests the other hand on his hip; a white tilak marks his forehead and his long dark hair falls loose. A tiger-striped cloth covers the platform and a water bottle sits at the left edge. The setting is a stage with pink and purple lighting.
