He wears a reddish-brown saffron-toned cloth draped over his shoulders, a gold chain around his neck and a red wrist thread. Two young women in orange and red garments and a few other seated attendees lean in at the front of the frame. Behind him stand a bronze Nataraja dancing Shiva statue and a white stone Nandi bull, with bronze deity figures on a pedestal and red walls in the background. A leopard-print cushion lies on the couch, and hanging chains frame the left edge.
