A photograph of a single standing man in a green-lit set of artificial foliage, holding a tall silver-and-white twisted staff. He wears a dark maroon-brown kurta-style top with a wide gold-patterned belt, a long maroon shawl draped over one arm, dark trousers with a gold border, and a long multi-strand rudraksha-style bead mala with a large gold pendant. His hair is long and dark, piled up with a small ornament at the top, and he has a forehead tilak. Beside him is a large bronze-coloured bull statue, a Nandi-type figure with tassel-decorated harness. A woven striped cloth lies at his feet. The scene is a stage-like tableau.
