A seated man in a rust-red dhoti-style wrap with a large gold-and-black bead rudraksha-style mala and a white vibhuti line on his forehead extends his hand to touch the forehead of a kneeling man in a white shirt with a red-orange shawl. Behind them stand a silver trident-topped staff, gilded lion sculptures and a peacock-feather fan. The seated man has long swept-back hair and ornate gold necklace cues, so he is a probable Swamiji candidate in a blessing role; the kneeling devotee is in white with a red shawl. Two people are visible.
