A smiling man with long dark hair tied in a bun sits on the edge of a tiled platform inside a temple. He wears a bright orange draped garment over a red sleeveless top, one hand resting on his chest. Behind him stands a large dark stone basin with lotus-petal carving, and above it gilded temple architecture with a gold figure of a deity. Bare feet dangle over the tiled edge. The pose is a candid, relaxed moment. Appearance cues of long swept-back hair, orange clothing and a temple setting are consistent with the page's a person reference, but the face cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.
