A seated man in a cream turban and a silver-embroidered cream brocade kurta, wearing a red tilak on his forehead and layered white and red flower garlands, holds a small white card and reads it with eyes lowered. In front of him stands a man in a plain white shirt with a dark rudraksha-style mala around his neck, facing him and looking down. Behind them is a large ornate gold-embossed backdrop with repeating floral and scroll motifs. The seated man has long dark hair and distinctive ceremonial adornments but his identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.
