A seated figure in white clothing sits on an ornate gold throne with a red cushioned seat against a dark blue draped curtain. In front of the throne, a man with grey hair in a white shirt kneels with raised hands toward the seated figure.

The scene reads as a satsang, with the seated figure on the throne and a kneeling devotee offering reverence.
