A smiling man with long dark hair, a red bindi and a long-sleeved... no, a bare-shouldered purple draped garment stands beside a golden ratha-style vehicle with a golden bull-like figure at its base. He wears a long gold bead mala and a gold chain, raises one hand in a blessing gesture and wears a purple wrap. Behind him stands a golden statue wearing a purple turban and purple robe with gold necklaces, one hand raised, set against garlands of yellow, red, green and purple flowers. A tall brass oil lamp stands at right, and an orange cloth covers the floor in front of a dark blue curtain.
