A seated man in saffron-orange robes wears a ceremonial gold necklace of beads and a rudraksha-style gold mala, with a red bindi and white tilak on his forehead. He sits on an ornate gold throne with a silver trident beside him, smiling as he reaches toward a person in a white shirt with rolled sleeves who holds a woven basket. The person in white partly faces away from the camera. Behind them a man in glasses watches, and the background shows carved gold panels and red drapery. The scene suggests a devotional offering at a seated dais.
