A seated figure in orange saffron robes with long, swept-back dark hair sits on an ornate gold throne with a red velvet back, writing or signing something on a small card while holding a pen. Several shaved-headed men in orange and saffron garments are in the foreground, seen from behind, and a brass or gold decorated stand is at the left edge. Dark drapes hang behind the throne. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the a person cues: long hair, saffron clothing and a throne, though the face is partly lowered and not clearly visible, so identity is uncertain.
