A seated man in an ornate gold and red throne with carved gilded backrest sits center frame, wearing an orange-saffron cloth draped over his body and a multicoloured flower garland with blue and white blooms around his neck. He has a white vertical tilak on his forehead, a red mark on the brow, white ash markings on his arms and chest, and long dark hair. He holds a golden-yellow food item in his hand. Behind him, women in white head caps and a red-and-gold saree prepare food from a silver bowl and trays, while a woman in a red blouse and white-and-gold saree sits beside him. Swamiji (probable): the man wears saffron sannyasi clothing, long swept-back hair, a garland and ash markings, seated on a throne in a ritual food-offering setting.
