A photograph in a marble-walled hall shows a seated man in saffron-orange dhoti and shawl on an ornate gold-and-crimson throne. He wears a gold headband, a gold necklace with a pendant, and a long braid. He smiles and gestures with one hand toward a man in a blue-and-white striped shirt and grey trousers who kneels on a striped red rug, bending over the throne's bare feet, apparently performing padapuja. A second person in white dhoti stands at the left edge. Gold-trimmed cushions, a small table and a white equipment case are nearby.
