A seated figure in a saffron-orange robe with a red-and-yellow flower garland and gold bangles sits on an orange-draped chair inside a home, receiving mangoes and an orange from a kneeling man in a checked shirt and a man in a white shirt with a red garland and orange shawl. A shaved-headed attendant in orange robes and a rudraksha-style beaded necklace stands behind, holding a silver vessel. Standing onlookers in white and light clothing watch from the left, and a hand offers fruit from the lower right over a tray. Blue paper streamers and an arched doorway decorate the room. Swamiji (probable) is seated in the chair, identified by long swept-back hair, ornate gold jewellery, and saffron-orange clothing.
