The painting depicts a man sitting on a blue and gold chair, adorned with an orange robe and a blue turban. He holds a small object in his right hand, while his left hand rests on his lap. A parasol with a gold and red patterned canopy is positioned above him. The man's attire and the parasol suggest a regal or ceremonial setting. The background of the painting features a beige color with a blue stripe at the top, accompanied by floral patterns on either side. This painting is reminiscent of the works found at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
