Outdoor ritual scene under a open-sided pavilion with a tall wooden pillar wrapped in marigold and mixed-flower garlands. A man with long dark hair, rudraksha mala around his neck and a saffron-orange dhoti with gold border, stands at the pillar holding a silver bowl; he appears to be a probable Swamiji by appearance cues of long hair, rudraksha mala and saffron clothing.
