A seated man in rust-red robes and a matching red turban sits on an ornate golden throne upraised with a leopard-print cushion and tiger-striped cloth, wearing a pink and white flower garland and bare feet. He raises his right hand in blessing while his left hand rests on his knee. Flanking the throne are two painted deity statues with pink skin, tall gold crowns, gold jewellery and pearl necklaces, one holding a flame. Brass bells and a hanging lamp hang above, and in the lower left foreground the hands of seated devotees are pressed together in prayer. The scene suggests a satsang or darshan setting.
