A seated figure in orange robes and a white jasmine garland with red flower accents sits on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-like supports and a red cushioned back. He extends one hand toward two devotees in white clothing standing before him with palms pressed together in namaskar. The woman on the left wears a white sari and hair in a bun; the man beside her wears white with a rudraksha-style mala and a red-and-gold sash. A small table holds ritual items. A child is partly visible at the left edge, and another person's head appears at the bottom right. The figure's appearance includes long swept-back hair and saffron robes with a garland, consistent with the page's identification, though confirmation is uncertain.
