A seated man in a red-orange dhoti-style wrap and red-orange cloth draped over his shoulder, with a vertical tilak on his forehead, long dark hair falling behind him, and gold armlets and layered gold necklaces with white floral ornaments. His eyes are closed and he raises a gold-tipped ceremonial staff with his right hand. He sits on an ornate silver-framed throne with a red cushioned seat. Beside him stands a silver ritual stand and a silver trident-like standard. Blurred seated devotees, some with shaved heads, fill the background in a bright pink-walled hall.
