The wrists wear a braided reddish-brown cord bracelet, and the torso shows gold-toned beaded necklaces with dark rudraksha-style beads and a ceremonial gold pendant. Behind is blurred green foliage. Distinctive adornments suggest a person candidate in a ritual setting, but the face and full figure are not visible, so identity remains uncertain.2020-06-17April 03 20182018-04-03Close crop of a figure in an orange-saffron shawl draped over the upper body, with a dark knitted rudraksha-style wrap around the neck and a leopard-print skirt.
