A seated man in a silver-and-red throne with carved lion armrests receives a blessing. He wears a rust-orange draped robe, layered rudraksha malas, gold pendant necklaces, rudraksha bracelets, a gold earring, and a white tilak on his forehead. He touches the head of a bare-shouldered devotee who bows forward, while an attendant in white dhoti steadies the devotee's shoulder. A red velvet footstool and a white sacred thread are visible. The setting is night-time, with a yellow pole in the background.
