He wears a rudraksha mala around his neck and has long dark hair tied up at the back, with a tilak on his forehead. Behind him are stone platforms and sunlit foliage. The figure's appearance matches the sannyasi attire of the page's subject, but facial and build cues are not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so the figure is described by role as a sannyasi at the banyan tree.2011-01-31April 04 20122012-04-04May 29 20132013-05-29A man in a saffron-orange wrap leans forward with his forehead pressed against the trunk of a large tree, eyes closed, in an outdoor setting with dense green foliage behind him. His bare upper body shows a bead armlet and a red-brown bead necklace; his hair is tied in a bun. Thick grey-brown roots and trunk fill the left side of the frame.2012-04-04September 06 20112011-09-06 +1 copiesA man in an orange saffron dhoti and shawl with gold-braided edges leans his forehead against the trunk of a large banyan tree with aerial roots, eyes closed in meditative devotion. He wears a gold-bead necklace, gold armlets and gold bangles, a hair bun, and a tilak on his forehead. Bare trees and a blurred reddish wall stand behind him in an outdoor setting. He is a single person and his identity is not established by any visible cue, so the a person field is unsure.2011-12-17 +1 copiesNovember 21 20112011-11-21A man stands barefoot on a red and patterned mat beside a large banyan tree, leaning his forehead and right hand against its trunk with eyes closed in quiet devotion. He wears a rust-orange dhoti and shawl with broad gold borders, a rudraksha mala with a gold ceremonial necklace, a gold bracelet, and a white tilak on his forehead. Long dark hair falls past his shoulders. Sandy ground and a low stone wall surround the tree, with greenery behind.2013-04-25A man stands beside a large banyan tree trunk with aerial roots in an outdoor setting of green foliage. He is bare-chested and wears a saffron-yellow wrap with a thin light border, draped over his shoulder. He has a long rudraksha-style mala of reddish-brown beads and a gold armlet and bangle. A white horizontal line marks his forehead, and his dark hair is tied in a knot at the back. He stands with eyes closed, one hand raised near his temple in a meditative or contemplative pose. The appearance is consistent with the page's reference to a person, but the identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so this is described as a devotee-like figure with ceremonial adornments.2012-04-04
