An older man in a cream shirt, brown trousers and a white tilak on his forehead bends forward to receive a red fruit from a seated person in saffron-orange robes with a white and red flower garland. The seated figure has long swept-back dark hair and rests on a white-draped cushioned seat, smiling as they hand over the fruit. Behind them, several devotees in saffron and red salwar kameez, a sari and white dhotis stand near a wall-mounted fan and a small table with flower offerings. A child in white kurta is at left, and loose flower petals lie on the floor. The swami-style presentation with the seated figure has several cues, so this is a person receiving darshan from a devotee.
