He has a white horizontal tilak and a red bindi on his forehead and is smiling warmly. In front of him, a person in a white shirt has his hand raised toward the seated man's head in a blessing gesture. Behind them is an ornate golden throne with floral carved patterns against a deep red curtain. The seated man's appearance, with the turban, garland and throne, gives cues consistent with a person receiving a blessing, though identity is uncertain from appearance alone. A watermarked photo caption is not visible on the subject.2017-04-20A photograph of a seated devotee in white clothes with rudraksha malas and an orange-brown cloth over one shoulder, receiving a blessing as a man with long dreadlocked hair, bare-shouldered and wearing a pink-and-white flower garland, presses his palm to the devotee's forehead.
