A bearded man in saffron-orange robes with rudraksha malas and a gold necklace sits on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, a crescent ornament on his crown-like hair, holding a green leaf and a plate of green leaves. A man in a white shirt with a red cloth bends in from the left to offer something from his hand, while a woman in a cream sari with gold border stands at the right. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure with long swept-back hair, saffron robes and multiple rudraksha malas, presented as the presiding teacher receiving the offering in a ritual setting. Background shows a dark wooden panel with carved motifs, and a small brass lamp is at the lower left.
