A man seated on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-head armrests and a tiger-striped seat cover raises his right hand in blessing. He wears a rust-orange robe with a gold-edged yellow border and a long rudraksha mala with a gold necklace of beads. Dim lamps flicker at the foot of the throne, and two people in the foreground, one in a dark outfit and one in white, face him at the bottom of the frame. A dark wooden wall, bells and a pink and green painted pillar frame the scene.
