Behind him, a man in white dhoti with gold border holds a silver ceremonial staff, and a figure in orange robes with rudraksha malas stands at left, with a brass deity murti at lower left. Setting appears to be a temple interior with golden walls. Appearance is not sufficient to confirm the identity of the central figure.
