A photo of a seated figure in orange robes and a red flower garland receiving a young boy at a home-visit blessing or pada pooja setting. The seated person has long dark hair, a red garland over an orange garment, and rests a hand on the boy's head while holding a small paper. Beside them, a woman in a white embroidered kurta with a white shawl holds the boy's shoulder, and a man in white with a black mala stands behind. Behind the seated figure stands a man in an orange cloth and cap, and a girl in white with an orange hair tie. Red cushions, apples and a small offering tray are on the seat and table, with a gold-trimmed chair at right. Presence of a person is only an appearance-based candidate: the seated figure wears orange, long hair and a red garland, with no crown or rudraksha visible, so the identity is uncertain.
