A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a white flower garland with a red rose bead section and a yellow citrus-fruit garland sits on an ornate gold throne with red tiger-striped upholstery. He has a red bindi and long dark hair, smiling broadly as he places his right palm on the head of a younger devotee wearing a white shirt and a yellow shawl. The devotee's head is bowed toward him. Behind them is a lime-green backdrop with pink scroll patterns. A purple logo sits in the lower left corner. The sitter's identity is uncertain from appearance alone, so he is described by role as a seated teacher blessing a devotee.
