Close side view of a middle-aged man with short greying hair and a moustache, eyes closed, receiving a blessing as a hand presses on the crown of his head. He wears a white shirt and a brown rudraksha mala around his neck. Out of focus behind him, figures in white clothing stand in a hall, and a blurred person in white at right wears a yellow-gold sash. The blessing hand belongs to a person whose forearm enters from the left edge. The man's other hand is raised palm-outward near his chest.
