A seated figure in orange-saffron robes and layered rudraksha malas with gold bead necklaces and a white-and-red forehead marking sits on a leopard-print cushion before an ornate silver-framed backdrop, holding a thread or cord in his hands. Beside him a bald man in orange robes and glasses bends forward with his hand on the seated figure's shoulder.
