A man with long dark hair, white and red tilak marks on his forehead, and a leopard-print shawl over an orange garment sits on a gold ornate throne in front of a large floral garland of red, yellow and white flowers. He lays his right hand on the shaved head of a person in white clothing, who is bowed forward at the left edge of the frame. A gold bead-and-ornament necklace hangs over his orange cloth, and a bandage is visible on his upper arm. The scene suggests a blessing given while seated on the throne.
