A seated man with long dark hair and a reddish-brown shawl, sitting on an ornate throne-like seat, extends his hands to a younger man in a yellow kurta with a red-and-maroon shawl who kneels and receives him with joined palms. Behind them a maroon draped altar bears gold and multi-strand garlands and a metal staff, with green plants at left. A woman in white with a red shawl watches with her hand near her face, and a standing person in white stands at the back. Interpretation of the seated figure as a presentation-appearance candidate is uncertain from the image alone, so identity is left unresolved.
