A seated man in a flowing saffron-orange robe sits on an ornate gilded throne with a red cushioned back and a gold canopy overhead. He has long, swept-back dark hair and bare feet on a red footstool, and raises one hand in a blessing gesture. Flanking the throne are four gold-finished deity murti statues on white draped pedestals, including a figure holding a veena. A deep plum velvet curtain forms the backdrop, and a small gold kalasha-style object and gold shrine piece sit at the front.
