A seated man in an orange saffron robe with long, swept-back dark hair and a red bindi sits on a white upholstered throne-style chair before a deep red velvet curtain. A young boy in a white shirt kneels with his head bowed toward him, as if receiving blessings. A standing attendant in white kurta with an orange shawl stands at left, and a tray with flowers sits near the boy. Cues consistent with a person: long swept-back hair, saffron robe, seated on a throne during a darshan blessing. The robed figure's identity is appearance-based and uncertain.
