A seated man in saffron-orange robes with palms pressed together in anjali mudra sits on an ornate gilded throne with red cushions and carved lion-head armrests. He wears a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace, a crown with a peacock feather, and a flower garland of white, red and yellow blossoms. Above him hangs a gold canopy with garlands, and red-and-white floral drapery frames the backdrop. In the foreground a small silver-tinted vessel and a yellow flower garland surround a central object, with fruit and sweets on a white-draped table. Two devotees in orange clothing sit at the sides, and a third is partly visible at the left edge. The scene resembles a dais honouring a seated figure, with the seated man displaying distinctive adornments consistent with a person.
