This painting shows a man in a bright, patterned outfit with a long necklace of pink flowers. His head is framed by a green circle, and he wears a tall, bejeweled headpiece. A small bird perches on his shoulder, and he holds a pink flower in one hand. The background is simple, letting the colors of his clothes stand out.
