A seated man with long dark hair and a full beard, wearing a rust-orange shawl over his shoulders and a gold pendant, has eyes closed with a serene smile and a white tilak on his forehead. He raises one hand in a blessing gesture toward a bald devotee in the foreground who wears a red-and-white beaded mala and a light yellow garment. Behind him is an ornate silver-embossed throne back with floral and scrollwork patterns and round finials, and a leopard-print cloth lies beside the seat. The scene suggests an initiation or blessing moment. Two people are partially visible at the edges of the frame.
