A seated man in orange clothes, with a shawl draped over his head and shoulders and a garland of white jasmine and red and yellow flowers around his neck, places his right hand on the crown of a kneeling bald man in white. The kneeling man wears a white shirt and rudraksha mala beads and bows forward. Behind them a woman in white with a yellow shawl watches, and a gilded throne with a red cushion stands to the right. An orange curtain, a carved stone pillar and a red railing with golden finials form the background. The orange-clad figure is a probable match for a person based on his orange robes and garland, but this is uncertain.
