A seated man in meditation pose on a leopard-print cushioned platform before a large metallic relief of a four-armed deity murti seated with a book in one hand. He wears an orange-red turban with a vermilion tilak, a leopard-print sleeveless garment over a rust-orange wrap, layered beaded necklaces, a pendant, and bangles. A tall ceremonial staff stands beside him. Golden carved panels, lattice windows, multicoloured tassel drapes, brass lamp-bearer statues and a striped rug frame the scene. The setting suggests a darshan or meditation session. Identity is uncertain from appearance.
