A smiling man with long dark hair and a white vertical forehead mark stands against a gold draped curtain. He is bare-chested and wears a multi-strand rudraksha-style necklace, a bandolier of brass bells across his chest, gold armbands, and a wide decorated waist belt. He holds up his left hand in a blessing gesture and raises a tall silver staff with a trident finial and a drum-shaped ornament in his right hand. Distinctive adornments and his trident-staff suggest a Shiva-like ascetic presentation, though the identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.
