He has bangles on his wrists and is pouring or sprinkling grains from a steel bowl placed on a gold-framed low table draped with green cloth. Steel bowls and trays sit on an orange cloth at right, a water bottle stands at left, and a small figure is partly visible on the floor in the background. The setting is a plain hall with cream walls. The seated figure's appearance is not clearly distinctive enough to confirm identity, so he is described by role only.2012-04-23 +2 copiesA photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold throne with a carved red-cushioned seat, set on a low golden platform. He wears an orange-saffron cloth, a long white and red-and-pink flower garland, and gold bangles, and holds a small object while speaking into a clip microphone. A steel bowl of yellow rice sits on a green cloth in front of him, with brass vessels on the floor. A water bottle and small side table stand to the left against a pale wall. A bearded or bare-headed figure is faintly visible at the far right edge. The figure's appearance matches the page's a person reference only partially, with the saffron cloth and garland as cues but no further distinctive features, so identity is uncertain.2012-04-23 +2 copiesA seated figure on an ornate gold-and-red throne receives ritual service. The central person wears an orange-and-gold garment, a long white and red flower garland, gold bangles, a red-and-gold beaded armband and a red tilak on the forehead, with a green parrot-shaped ornament on top of the head. Two attendants lean in: one on the left in a rust-red monastic robe with a shaved head and glasses, pouring or washing the feet over a steel bowl of yellow turmeric-like paste, and one on the right in an orange sari, scooping from a banana leaf. A steel bowl and leaf plate sit on the floor in front. The scene suggests a padapuja-style foot ritual, but the figure's identity cannot be established from appearance, so the central person is described by role only.2012-04-23 +2 copiesAnnadhan in 20132013-01-01 +1 copiesJuly 10 20132013-07-10Annadhan in 20132013-01-01 +1 copiesA seated man with long dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead sits on an ornate gold throne with carved scroll and floral motifs, wearing a rust-brown saffron-toned cloth draped over bare shoulders.
