A seated figure in saffron-orange robes and a rudraksha mala sits on a red velvet throne with a gold carved backrest, decorated with garlands of yellow and red flowers. He wears a swept-back topknot and a gold ornament, and raises his right hand toward a man in a white collared shirt standing before him, whose palms are raised in a greeting. Behind them stand gold-coloured decorative objects, a golden lion-shaped figure and hanging gold and green fabrics. The setting appears to be an ashram hall. The orange-robed figure is a person by appearance, with distinctive saffron robes, rudraksha beads and a topknot.
