A long-haired man in a red draped garment and a gold-and-bead necklace sits on a red-cushioned gold throne decorated with yellow, orange, purple and white flower garlands, smiling and extending a red cloth toward a woman bowing at his feet. The woman wears a cream and gold South Indian sari with a braid adorned with white and orange flowers, bending forward with her hands together and a white card or envelope in front of her. Behind them stand a gold trident, brass lamps and a bird-shaped brass object against a blue and gold backdrop with string lights. A bald man in white stands at the right edge. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long dark hair, red-saffron draped clothing and a rudraksha-style ornamented necklace, and is seated on the throne as the honoured figure.
