In front of him a man in a white shirt, dark trousers and a red-beaded necklace presses his palms together in greeting and holds an offering, while a second man in a white shirt and belt stands behind him with hands clasped. A woman in a yellow top and blue skirt stands at left, and a corner of another saffron-clad person is visible at right. A wooden box and stacked books sit on a table draped with white cloth, and a floral-upholstered armchair is at left. The scene reads as a visitor's blessing or pada puja moment.
