A seated man in an orange and gold-bordered dhoti and shawl, with rudraksha beads and a gold necklace and a white tilak on his forehead, rests his hand on the head of a boy bowing before him. The seat is a gold-carved throne with red velvet cushions, and brass oil lamps stand behind against a gold lattice wall. A younger child in a grey t-shirt and another child stand at the right, watching. The man's appearance with saffron clothing, rudraksha and gold necklace is consistent with a person, seated as the giver of blessing in what looks like darshan. Three to four people are visible.
