A smiling man seated on an ornate gilded throne with carved golden scrollwork and a red velvet cushion. He wears a cream turban with a jewelled ornament, a deep maroon shawl with gold embroidered border over a bare chest, and multiple rudraksha malas, with a red bindi on his forehead. Bangle-style gold armbands and bracelets adorn his arms, and he holds a ceremonial object in one hand. Behind him stands a colourful painted deity murti with a crown. A gold lion-footed armrest is visible at the lower right, and a white bird perches on a post at left. Watermarked copyright text overlays the lower right corner.
