A seated man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban sits on a golden throne with lion-head armrests, draped with a tiger-striped cloth. He wears multiple gold necklaces, gold bangles and a rudraksha mala, and holds a long wooden staff tipped with an orange cloth upright against his shoulder with one hand. Behind him is a large arch of garlands in yellow, red, white and purple flowers, with a golden ornament at the top and hanging brass bells and flower strings on the left. A partially visible person in orange clothing stands at the right edge. The scene appears to be a ceremonial darshan setting in a temple-like hall with a dark backdrop.
