A man sits cross-legged on an orange cushion placed on a low wooden platform over a woven mat, facing the water at the edge of a pond or river. He wears a saffron-orange shawl draped over his shoulders and an orange robe, with a red tilak on his forehead and his hands resting in his lap in a meditation posture. A brass kalasha-like vessel stands at the left edge of the frame. Grey water and blurred greenery fill the background. The appearance of this person is consistent with the a person candidate, given the orange clothing and the single visible tilak, but the cues are limited, so the identity is uncertain.
