A seated man in an orange saffron wrap with long swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead raises a hand toward a standing woman in a navy blue sari holding a small child dressed in orange. Behind them stand ornate gold lamps, a gilded seat, and garlands of red and yellow flowers draped over a golden deity murti in a temple setting. A man in white clothes is partly visible at the lower left. The man in orange has distinctive long hair and saffron robes, so he is described as a probable Swamiji seated in a darshan-style setting, giving blessing to the mother and child. Three people are visible in the scene.
