A seated man in a maroon and saffron-gold draped garment and long rudraksha malas sits on an ornate gold throne with carved floral backrest and red cushions. He wears a dark turban-like head covering and a red tilak, and smiles while resting his hand on the bare shoulder of a young boy standing in front of him. The boy wears a red and gold dhoti, rudraksha beads and a bead necklace, his back to the camera. Behind them a shirtless attendant in white dhoti is partly visible, and a red wall and wooden lattice frame the scene. Appearance-based candidate: Swamiji (probable), seated on the throne with long swept-back hair, a turban and rudraksha malas, blessing the boy.
