A seated man on a brown cushioned chair wears a white flower garland, a saffron-brown dhoti-style cloth, gold armlet and bangles, and has his bare feet being washed. A devotee in a white sleeveless top kneels at his feet. A younger shaven-headed boy in orange robes and a rudraksha mala holds a brass bowl. A woman in a blue sari and another in a green-gold sari stand with folded hands, a man in a white shirt watches, and a photographer in white clothes takes pictures. A silver-coloured pole stands beside the chair.
