The figure holds a small folded paper in the other hand and wears a red bindi. Behind them, a partly visible person in a green-bordered cloth sits with a rudraksha mala, and a red velvet cushion and dark maroon curtain frame the room. The setting resembles a blessing or darshan moment in an indoor hall with pale walls.
