A seated man in a red and gold striped silk garment, with long dark hair swept back, a red bindi on his forehead, and multiple strands of rudraksha or wooden beads around his neck, sits on an ornate gilded throne with lion carvings and a red and yellow flower garland arching above it. Oil lamps stand at the edges of the frame. His bare arm wears gold bangles, and he smiles while looking to one side. The throne and garlands suggest a ceremonial stage setting.
