A man with long, swept-back dark hair, a red bindi and white tripundra-style markings on his forehead, wearing a white dhoti-style wrap and heavy gold rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and an armlet, places his right hand on the head of a kneeling man in a white shirt with folded hands. The seated figure sits on a red cushioned throne with ornate gold carving behind him. Behind them are arrangements of orange, pink, yellow and red flowers and a lit oil lamp on a brass stand at right. The scene suggests a blessing or darshan moment. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, gold beaded necklaces, white wrap and throne cues match the page's Swamiji reference.
