A woman in a white and orange-striped sari bends forward and presses her forehead to the dark hands of a standing figure in saffron-orange robes. Her hands are clasped around the figure's dark hand, and she wears a gold bangle and rudraksha beads. The robed figure wears a long red-and-yellow garland of marigolds and roses and a wooden rudraksha mala. Green foliage blurs in the background. The scene reads as a devotional gesture of reverence.
