A seated man in an orange long-sleeved top and orange dhoti sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions and jasmine garlands, against a forest-tree backdrop. He wears a rudraksha mala with a decorated pendant, a white and red tilak on his forehead, and holds up a black staff wrapped with rope and small bells. A lit brass oil lamp stands to the right. The appearance-based label a person applies: he has a shaved head with a sacred mark, saffron-orange clothing and a rudraksha mala, though the presentation cues are not fully distinctive.
