A seated figure in orange robes and a white and pink flower garland sits on an ornate gold and red upholstered throne, extending a hand toward a young girl in an orange top and patterned skirt who bows at his feet. Several devotees crowd around: a woman in a blue blouse and white sari with orange flowers, a man in a white shirt and dark trousers helping the girl, a woman bending forward, and a child held by a man at the upper left. In the lower right, another orange-clad figure sits on the floor near the throne, with a stack of books and a small offering plate nearby. The setting is a plain cream-walled room. The seated figure is an appearance-based a person candidate: long swept-back hair, saffron robes, and a rudraksha mala.
