A seated man in an orange-red garment with a bare shoulder and a rudraksha mala signs a white book held open by a woman in an orange-red sari with a rudraksha mala and a forehead tilak. Beside her, a woman in a white sari with a rudraksha mala and gold bangles holds up another open book. Behind the seated man are gold lion-head throne arms, a silver trident standing upright, garlands of yellow and red flowers, a potted plant and a white electric fan. The seated man's appearance is uncertain, so he is described by role: a seated man signing books for devotees.
