He wears a peach-coloured upper cloth draped over bare shoulders, yellow dhoti, a long pink beaded mala and layered gold necklaces, gold bangles, and a peach and brown turban with a feather. Garlands of white and magenta flowers hang on the red wall behind him, with a peacock-feather motif and a brass wall lamp at upper left. A water bottle and small table sit at left. Appearance cues fit the a person candidate in a presenting pose, so the presentation is an appearance-based probable identification.
