A man seated on a red velvet cushioned throne against a deep red drapery backdrop, with a gold-covered armrest visible at the right edge. He wears a plain white shawl draped over one shoulder, leaving his bare chest and upper arm visible, and has silver bangles on his wrists and a silver armband with beaded detail on his upper arm. A red tilak mark sits on his forehead. He holds a long silver staff with a twisted shaft and a red-topped finial, resting it against his shoulder while looking off to the side. Appearance-based cues are limited to bangles, armband and bare-shouldered white drape with no crown or saffron garb, so identity is uncertain.
