A long-haired man in an orange-saffron robe sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne, his palms pressed to the crown of a seated devotee in a white-and-red striped polo shirt. The devotee's hands are raised, palms open, in a blessing gesture. The seated figure has a white forehead marking with a red dot, a rudraksha-style bead necklace, and gold bangles. Behind them a large white banner shows large red lettering. This is a photo of a seated blessing or darshan moment. The throne-seated figure matches the appearance cues for a person, and is positioned as the central figure receiving honour, so the in_person value is used.
