A seated man in white and saffron-bordered dhoti-shawl sits on a red velvet throne with an orange cushion, smiling as an older bald man in a white kurta presses his palm to the seated man's forehead in a blessing gesture. The seated figure wears a long double-strand rudraksha mala, a red tilak, and has long dark hair tied back. The setting is a stage with a maroon and pink backdrop and a navy curtain. The older man's white kurta contrasts with the gold-trimmed throne at left. A small audience member's head is visible at the lower right edge.
