Outdoors under a white canopy with a striped awning edge at top right, a long-haired man in a saffron-orange sleeveless robe sits smiling on a white cushioned seat with a red and gold pillow. He rests his hand on the head of a man in a blue striped shirt who bends forward. In front, a woman in a green sari with a red bindi and a seated man in a light shirt and white dhoti look on. A bottled water bottle, a small table with a book and a white cloth, and trees fill the background. The orange-robed man matches the a person appearance cues on the page, but his identity is uncertain from appearance alone, so he is described by role as the seated saffron-robed figure giving blessings.
