A man kneeling on a small patterned mat in a white shirt and dark trousers offers fruit from a wooden tray. A older man in white kurta and dhoti with an orange shawl stands at left, and a younger attendant in orange robes with a wristwatch stands at right with hands folded.

The seated figure has distinctive long swept hair, saffron robes and gold beads, so a person candidate is present in person.
