A seated man in a dark crown-like headdress with a red-orange dhoti and draped pink-and-white flower garland places his right hand on the crown of a kneeling bare-chested devotee's head, as a blessing. He wears gold armbands, bangles and a gold waist chain. Behind him are ornate gold and silver throne panels, a leopard-print cushion, red and pink garlands, and a jewelled, embroidered backdrop. A second kneeling devotee with earrings is partly visible at right, and a microphone stand stands in front. The scene reads as darshan or blessing at a throne-side gathering. Two physical people are visible; the seated figure is an appearance-based a person with crown, garland and ornate golden attire.
