A smiling man with short dark hair and a white-and-red forehead mark sits with palms pressed together in namaskar. He wears a draped red-orange cloth over bare shoulders, a flower garland of pink, white and orange blossoms, and gold bangles and armlets. Behind him is an ornate gold throne-like backdrop with a relief carving, and brass bells and an oil lamp hang on chains nearby, with fairy lights on a dark background. Appearance cues are a single figure with garland and ornate gold backdrop, consistent with a person presence in a ritual setting.
