He wears a rust-red robe with a gold border, a red and white garland, layered gold necklaces, and a white and red tilak on his forehead. His long dark hair is swept up, and he sits with hands resting on his lap atop a red-draped stage with two small brass lamps and fruit offerings. Bamboo stands behind the throne.
