A seated figure in a flowing saffron-orange robe sits on a gold-carved throne with a red velvet cushion, decorated with orange and red marigold garlands. Long dark hair falls past the shoulders and the figure raises one hand in blessing. A man in a white shirt and black trousers, with a red thread around his neck, bends forward to touch the seated figure's feet. Beside him a young girl in a white embellished dress holds a small bottle, and a woman in a white dupatta with a patterned print stands at the right. A young man in orange robes with a rudraksha mala stands at the upper left. The setting is a stage with a polished wooden floor and a warm backdrop. Padapuja, the ritual washing of feet, appears to be taking place.
