A photograph of a seated figure in a rust-orange sleeveless robe with a long silver-chain mala draped over the chest, dark hair in a bun and a white forehead mark, leaning down toward a newborn wrapped in a peach blanket printed with cartoon animals. The figure rests one hand on the baby's head and touches its own chin with the other. The baby, lying on a white cloth, has eyes closed and mouth open. Behind them are red and gold cushions and a gold-embossed backrest. Only one physical person is clearly visible, plus the infant, which is also a person.
