A seated man in maroon-red robes and a rudraksha mala, with a bare upper body and a swept-back bun, places his right hand on the head of a young boy with glasses. The boy wears an orange t-shirt and a red lanyard. Behind the seated man, a gold ornamental backdrop and green plants fill the space, and to the right another person in white with a brown shawl and rudraksha mala watches. The seated man has a white tilak on his forehead and smiles. The scene appears to be a blessing or darshan gesture. The seated figure shows cues consistent with the page's reference to a person, including a rudraksha mala and a swept-back bun, but the appearance is not conclusive, so the identity is recorded as unsure.
