A central figure in an orange-brown dhoti and shawl wears a heavy gold necklace, a thick rudraksha mala, gold bangles and a gold armlet, with white forehead markings and a red bindi; he smiles while extending his hand in blessing toward a young boy in a grey shirt with a blue lanyard, who has pressed his palms together. An older bald man in white stands at left with folded hands, and a man in white with a rudraksha mala and yellow-bordered white cloth stands at right. Metal barrier posts line the walkway, and a gold-decorated shrine with a seated figure is visible in the background.
