A photograph of a man standing indoors against a terracotta-coloured wall. He wears a saffron-orange cloth draped over his shoulders and a long gold bead necklace, and has a white tilak mark on his forehead and long dark hair swept back. His hands are pressed together at chest level in anjali mudra as he looks upward. Behind him a printed poster shows a text block headed 'A brush with Existence...' and framed photographs of older men and a group of seated women and children. A blue glove is visible on a table to the right. The appearance is consistent with a presentation of the page's named candidate, but the presentation cues are not sufficiently distinctive for a confident label. Only one physical person is present.2011-08-19April 30 20132013-04-30Photo of three saffron-robed sannyasis standing with palms pressed together in anjali mudra on a concrete floor beside a red carpet.
