A man stands centre stage before an ornate golden shrine-like structure with carved gilded panels, bells hanging above, and a richly decorated throne backdrop with embossed silver-gold discs. He wears a rust-red and saffron-toned draped garment, a long multi-strand rudraksha-style mala, a large ceremonial gold pendant necklace, and a gold waist belt, with a crown-like headpiece. His right hand is raised in blessing while his left hand rests near his side. A tall ornate staff with jewelled tassels stands to his left, a brass oil lamp stands nearby, and a golden animal figure is in the foreground on a colourful woven rug. Warm orange lighting fills the scene. a person is in the centre, presented in the attire and cues of a sannyasi teacher. Pictured seated throne-side figures are not counted.
