A bearded man in an orange-red saffron robe and a tan rudraksha mala sits on an ornate silver-and-gold throne-like seat with red velvet cushions, a sacred thread tied round one upper arm, and a sandalwood tilak with a white mark on the forehead.

Silver trishula staffs and brass oil lamps stand on either side, with a tall garland on the right and a gold-patterned backdrop behind. a person — the sitter has long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and saffron-orange robes on a throne.
