A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, holding a microphone in one hand and a silver bowl of food in the other. He has long dark hair, a beard, a tilak on his forehead, a gold necklace and a rudraksha-style ceremonial garland. Beside him a gilded deity murti stands with a lamp, and a brass trident and oil lamp rise on the left. A hand holds out food at the lower left.
