Outdoor photo beneath a large tree in a walled courtyard. A man seated on a leopard-print cloth wears an orange-saffron silk drape over one shoulder, a long necklace of dark rudraksha beads, white vertical tilak and a red dot on his forehead, and long dark hair swept back; he gestures with his right hand while his left rests in his lap, and a small ornate brass vessel with a lid sits beside him. In front, a boy in a red-and-white checked shirt and jeans faces him. Behind, several children and girls stand watching, one in a pink sari and others in dark tops. The man resembles a person by his long swept hair, saffron drape and rudraksha mala, and is seated in a place of honour in front of onlookers.
