A seated man in an orange saffron shawl and orange garment sits on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, smiling. He wears a rudraksha mala with silver beads and a crescent-shaped silver pendant, a gold earring, a red bindi and white vertical tilak, and a red-and-brown beaded armband. A shaved-headed man in a white dhoti with a gold border, seen from behind at left, raises his right palm toward him in greeting or blessing. Background shows a painted forest scene with a tiger-striped cushion at right. Appearance-based probable match to a person, seated on the throne with rudraksha malas, saffron clothing and ceremonial adornments; the priest is an unidentified devotee.
