The subject is wearing toe-rings on his right foot.Description
The portrait is of a man clad in a sumptuous gold and maroon robe sitting on an armchair in a carpeted interior hung with green glass lamps. European influence is also notable in the front-facing depiction of the subject, instead of the profile-facing depiction in traditional Rajasthani portraiture. The person appears to be from a wealthy background as he wears pearl and emerald necklaces and gold bracelets.- {{cite web|title=Portrait of Gadadhar Prasad|url=false|author=|year=1881|access-date=19 December 2025|publisher=Cleveland Museum of Art}}
