A man with long dark hair sits cross-legged in meditation with eyes closed on a low wooden seat atop a woven mat. He wears an orange-saffron garment draped over one shoulder with gold zari borders and a long necklace of gold beads. A red tilak marks his forehead. Behind him stands an orange stepped temple plinth with a black deity murti garlanded with yellow and magenta flowers. Colourful rangoli lines and dark stones decorate the ground, and a brass vessel sits at the left edge. The man is a single person with a distinctive appearance: long swept hair, saffron cloth and ornate gold beads, consistent with the page's a person label, so this is a probable in-person candidate.
