A seated man with a shaved head and a vertical tilak on his forehead sits with palms pressed together in anjali on an ornate golden throne (peetha) backed by a large gilded arch. The throne has golden lion-head armrests and red velvet cushions, with a tiger-striped cloth draped over the platform. He wears a reddish-brown dhoti with a gold border, a bare upper body, a rudraksha mala and ornate gold necklaces, and gold bangles on his arms. On each side stand painted deity murti figures with multiple arms, crowns and gold jewellery, holding ritual objects. The setting is a temple-style hall with painted pillars and a wooden door behind the throne.
