April 30 20172017-04-30Indoor photograph of a saffron-clad figure seated on a maroon cushioned chair, placing his hand on the forehead of a young boy in a blue and white checked shirt who stands with eyes closed and palms together. The seated figure has long dark hair swept back, wears a red and gold beaded garland with a gold-colored necklace, an orange-yellow wrap, and a gold bangle. A folded orange cloth and a pink and gold cloth bundle lie on the chair, and a small tray of offerings sits nearby. Behind them, another child in a green garment and a woman in white stand in a bright room with a window, an air conditioner and a curtain. The seated figure appears to be a person based on his long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha-style beaded garland and ceremonial gold necklace, though his identity is uncertain.2013-05-28April 30 20172017-04-30May 28 20132013-05-28 +1 copiesMay 28 20132013-05-28May 28 20132013-05-28 +1 copiesA seated group of women and girls holds small oil lamps during a lamp ceremony in a hall with white candles on the floor.
