A man with long, swept-back dark hair sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne flanked by two gold lion figures, palms pressed together in greeting. He wears a saffron-orange robe, a red bindi, a rudraksha-style beaded mala with a gold-toned necklace, and several bangles. Behind him stand two painted, multi-armed deity murti figures holding tridents and staffs, with a turquoise and pink temple backdrop and hanging brass lamps above.
