A man in a saffron-orange turban with a small ornament at the front walks barefoot across a stage, wearing white dhoti-style trousers, an orange sash and a white-and-orange cloth draped over one shoulder. He wears a long rudraksha-style mala with white beads, matching beaded armlets and wristbands, and a red tilak on his forehead. Behind him a red ring-shaped frame hangs from a red pole under a pale tent canopy, and a figure in yellow sits at the left edge.

He wears layered rudraksha beaded necklaces with golden beads, gold bangles and a gold armband, and a small red bindi on his forehead. His eyes are lowered. A black flat-screen monitor stands to the right, with a dark curtain behind. The figure has distinctive orange turban and saffron clothing cues, but the appearance is uncertain, so he is described by role only.2011-10-14A standing man in an orange turban with a small peacock-feather ornament and red bindi, wearing an orange and white dhoti-style garment with gold borders, a draped orange shawl, a long gold bead necklace, gold armbands and red bangles. He stands barefoot on a light tiled floor in front of a red-draped table holding a television, with a lit brass lamp and dark red curtains behind him. Barefoot and in sacred attire, he stands as a single person in an event hall.2011-09-15A photograph of a smiling man in an orange turban with a silver brooch and red bindi, wearing white dhoti-style clothing with an orange sash bordered in gold and a wrap of orange cloth over the shoulder, with a rudraksha mala around his neck and beaded bracelets on his wrist. He raises a hand in greeting toward a man in a white floral-print shirt and beige trousers, seen from behind at right. Behind them a stage backdrop shows a deity murti surrounded by pink and white flowers. Appearance-based cues (orange turban, orange and gold ritual clothing, rudraksha mala) suggest a person, though the face is not used for identification.2011-10-19A smiling man stands on a stage in front of a pale pink backdrop, wearing a bright orange turban with a small blue and gold emblem at the front and a red bindi on his forehead. He wears an orange draped upper garment with a sheer orange scarf over one shoulder, a white and gold-bordered dhoti-style lower wrap, a beaded red-and-gold waist belt, and multiple strands of red and gold beads around his neck. Gold-and-beaded bangles are on his wrists and upper arms. His posture is relaxed, one hand resting at his hip, and a dark curtain edges the right side of the frame. The rendered look suggests a costumed stage performance rather than a ritual setting, and the identity of the performer cannot be established from appearance alone.2011-09-06September 06 20112011-09-06 +1 copiesPhotoAlbum +1 copiesPhotoAlbum
