A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a red-gold border, wearing a long rudraksha mala and a white forehead mark, holds a white feather fan raised above an elderly woman in a wheelchair. She wears a cream shawl with grey trim and dark-rimmed glasses, hands pressed together in reverence. Behind him stands a silver trident and an ornate gold throne with a carved lion motif, red velvet cushions and maroon drapes. The seated man has long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and saffron robes, consistent with the page's a person reference, but the face-independent cues are only partly distinctive, so the identification is uncertain.
