A smiling man with long dark hair sits on an orange-cushioned seat under a red and orange canopy hung with tassels and orange pennants. He wears a white turban with gold trim, a red bindi, an orange saffron-coloured robe with gold borders, a red and white flower garland and layered gold necklaces. He holds a wooden staff of the canopy with one hand and rests his other hands clasped in his lap. Behind him a crowd of devotees in white clothes watches, and a person in a dark jacket stands at the right edge. Garlands and petals lie on the red patterned carpet below, and a deity murti stands on the upper right. The scene appears to be a festival procession or public event.
