A seated figure in an orange-saffron robe with a white and yellow flower garland sits on a white-draped platform before deep red curtains and a white backdrop. A man in white kneels before him, both hands raised to the seated figure's head in blessing. Behind them, a child in a light patterned shirt and blue pants stands barefoot on the white cloth, and a person in white clothing is partly visible at right. The seated figure has long dark hair and a broad smile; an identity is not established from appearance, so the a person field is unsure.
