The recipient has his eyes closed and hands raised toward the blessing figure. Behind them are golden deity statues decorated with marigold garlands in orange and yellow, and a red cushion on the right.

A golden throne backrest and a golden lamp stand appear in the background beside a green carved stone pillar. A striped white cloth wraps the seated man's forearm.
