A man in a saffron-orange robe with a gold beaded necklace sits on a golden throne with a golden cobra-hooded backrest and a silver staff topped with a disc, against red draped curtains. He raises his right hand to a woman's head, blessing her, while she, in a white top with long dark hair, holds her palm raised toward him. A golden peacock-feather fan and a gold lion-headed armrest appear in the foreground. Partial heads of another person sit at the bottom edge. The figure's hairstyle, saffron garments, and gold ornaments are cues for a person, seated and giving blessing.
