Long, swept-back dark hair and the orange robe are visible cues. Beside the throne, a standing man in a white shirt and white dhoti, with a red cloth around his neck and gold bangles on his wrist, faces the seated figure and gestures with his hands as if speaking.

A photograph of two men in close conversation seated indoors before a deep red velvet drape. The man on the right wears a sleeveless saffron-orange garment over his shoulders and a long rudraksha mala with dark beads, has long swept-back hair and a red dot and white markings on his forehead, and is seated on a pale cream chair with a red cushion. He holds the hands of a man on the left, who wears a plain white collared shirt and faces away from the camera. Nothing about the appearance of the man in orange is sufficiently distinctive to establish identity, so the central figure is described by role only as a robed devotee receiving a visitor.

A man in a white shirt kneels before him, both of his hands extended to take the seated figure's hands in a gesture of reverence. A red backdrop with a large patterned motif and a green, red, white and yellow garland hang behind them. Another man in white is partly visible at the lower left.
