A man with long dark hair, wearing a saffron-orange robe and bare feet, sits on an orange upholstered chair with hands clasped in his lap and one foot resting on an orange footstool. Behind him stands a gilded shrine arch framing two large painted deity statues: one blue-skinned, four-armed figure in yellow dhoti and the other in orange and gold sari, with a gold kalasha-like altar piece garlanded with purple and white flowers. Brass oil lamps and a small framed deity image flank the shrine, and a white pedestal sits to the left. The sitter's appearance matches the page's a person reference only partially, with long swept hair and saffron clothing but no crown or rudraksha, so identity remains unsure.
