A woman in a dark red-maroon sari with orange-gold border wears a garland of pink and white flowers and a bindi. On the left, a bearded man with a topknot, bare chest, rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and white dhoti stands with arms folded. Another man in an orange-brown dhoti with ash marks and beaded necklace stands at right beside an ornate gilt-framed mirror. A white-clad man stands near the centre, and a religious picture with a garland hangs on the left wall.

A photograph taken inside a hall with white tiled floor and blue grille partitions. A man in white kurta and white dhoti walks forward on the left, wearing a pendant necklace. In the centre, a man in a white shirt and white trousers stands in a grilled doorway beside a figure in white robes with an orange shawl. On the right, a long-haired figure in an orange saffron robe with a rudraksha mala stands at the doorway, with a white chair row at the far left. Visible cues are limited to the orange-robed figure's long hair, saffron clothing and mala, which are consistent with the page's a person reference, but the appearance is not certain enough to confirm identity. Other visible people are in white ritual or everyday clothing.
