A seated figure on an ornate gold-and-red throne with carved gold backrest hands a small yellow fruit to a kneeling elderly man in a white head cloth and checked shirt. The seated figure wears a rust-red turban, a white jasmine garland and a red-and-gold shawl, with a bare chest and a gold-trimmed red cloth over the lap. Behind him a tall gold staff stands against a deep red drape. A line of women in saris and a man in a striped shirt stand at the right, watching; a woman in a white sari with a rudraksha mala and a red-brown garland stands beside the kneeling man. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure, based on the rust-red turban, long swept-back hair, ornate clothing and rudraksha and garland cues, presented in a darshan setting. Several other people are visible in the background.
