A man in white kneels before them with one hand raised toward the seated figure, while a row of men in white shirts and white dhotis stand at left, one holding a round drum. At right, several people in white and orange-bordered cloth stand near the seat. A white-draped bed or platform fills the foreground, with a small figure lying on it at lower left. Offering flowers sit on a table at left. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the presentation described for the page, but it is not clearly established, so the identification remains uncertain.
