A seated figure in saffron-orange robes sits on a red-cushioned throne decorated with white and multicoloured flower garlands, with a metal sculpted head-piece above. A long-haired person wearing a long mala and garland speaks into a microphone on a stand. Brass oil lamps stand on both sides of the stage, and wall fans are visible at the edges. The upper-left corner carries a printed caption with a chaturmasya number and an age and date.

Behind is a large photographic backdrop of banyan tree roots in reddish-brown tones, and a microphone stand stands at the right. A printed caption in the lower left corner reads 30th Chaturmasya, 32 years of age, July 25, 2010.

Overlaid in the upper left corner is printed text reading 28th Chaturmasya, 30 years of age, July 17, 2008, indicating a photo caption rather than the page date.
