He holds a silver staff or rod and raises a dark cord, while a young man in a light blue t-shirt leans in from the right, offering or receiving a folded paper slip. Behind them stand a gold ornate throne, red velvet cushion, green leafy plants and a red drape, with oranges visible in the lower foreground. The seated figure's appearance (orange turban, ornate garland and gold jewellery) is a probable match for a person, but the identification is uncertain.
