A shaven-headed man in saffron-orange robes with a dark rudraksha mala around his neck sits in the foreground, seen from behind, facing a shrine. Inside the shrine, a framed portrait of a smiling man in an orange turban and orange shawl sits atop an ornate gold throne draped with a tiger-skin cloth. The portrait is a depiction on a framed print, not a physical person. Flanking the doorway are painted multi-armed deity murti figures, one holding a flaming lamp. Blurred oil lamps glow in the foreground and hanging bells and beaded strings decorate the shrine. Two seated figures in white and dark clothing appear in the background.
