In the foreground a woman with long dark hair wears an orange sari with a green border and places her right hand on the crown of a seated man's head while her left hand rests near his chest. The man, with short grey hair, wears a red kurta and an orange shawl, and holds his right palm raised in a gesture of receiving blessing. Behind them a man in white with an orange shawl stands with hands folded, and other people in white and orange are partly visible at the edges, in a room with red drapes.
