He sits on a red cushioned seat beside an ornate gold throne and places both hands on the forehead of an elderly white-bearded man with long white hair, who wears an orange robe and bows forward. The setting is an indoor hall with a plain wall, a curtain and a small lectern-like stand. Two people are visible: the seated figure with raised hands and the bowing elder.
