A barefoot man in saffron-orange robes stands on a striped threshold in front of a decorated temple entrance, wearing a long red and white garland with a gold necklace. Behind him, a figure in an orange robe and a white-clad attendant holding a brass vessel stand under a canopy hung with yellow and red marigold garlands and bunches of green bananas. A red umbrella shades the area, and a row of men in white dhotis and shirts with lanyards stand on either side, some with hands folded in respect. A pair of sandals rests on the step below. Swamiji (probable): the central saffron-robed figure wears a long red and white garland and gold necklace, with long hair swept back, matching his presentation in this scene.
