A bald elderly man in an orange-red shawl sits on a deep red velvet seat with gold trim, wearing a beaded rudraksha necklace and a red-beaded head band, with white vertical markings on his forehead.

Behind her, a shaven-headed man in orange clothing with white forehead lines watches, and another man in orange holds a golden cup while standing near the seat. Silver railing posts and a small golden figure appear in the foreground. Four people are visible.
