A seated man in an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, with a rudraksha mala and a gold pendant necklace, places his right hand on the forehead of a kneeling bald man bare-chested with a white and gold-bordered cloth over his shoulder. The seated man has a white urdhva-style forehead mark with a red bindi and swept-back dark hair, and sits on a red velvet throne-like chair. Yellow roses in a vase sit in front, and a gold kalasha-style ornament stands beside them, before a painted forest backdrop of green trees. The scene looks like a blessing or initiation moment.
