A man with long swept-back dark hair sits on a red velvet and gold throne-like seat, wearing an orange-saffron robe with gold border and a long rudraksha mala of dark beads hanging to his waist. He rests his left hand on an orange cushion and extends his right hand to rest on the head of a seated devotee with short dark hair in front of him. Behind them stands a tall brass oil lamp with a lit flame, and red and cream draped fabric forms the backdrop. The scene suggests a darshan blessing.
