A stage photograph with a deep red velvet curtain behind. A man in a grey jacket with a walker bends forward with his hands together toward a seated figure in orange robes with a rudraksha mala and a white ritual cloth. Another man in white clothes with an orange scarf stands behind the elderly man, and a bearded man in a light blue shirt stands at the left edge. A woman in an orange sari with red and gold border bows at the right, and another woman in yellow stands at the far right. The seated figure sits on a white throne with bare feet resting on a white platform. The page does not confirm a person's presence, and no appearance cues establish his identity, so this is a seated devotee-like figure described by role only.
