A seated figure in yellow robes and a yellow turban, adorned with a red and orange flower garland and a pearl necklace, sits on a golden throne (peetha) framed by a floral arch of yellow marigolds, white flowers and green leaves. A white-robed devotee with a shaved head and yellow-bordered dhoti bends forward and touches the seated figure's cheek, while a second man in an orange cloth and rudraksha mala stands beside. A brass oil lamp stands at left and a golden peacock-feather panel at right. The scene appears to be a darshan or blessing in a temple hall. Two people are visible, plus the seated figure.
