A photograph from a ceremonial hall with a red carpet and red draped walls. A man in white dhoti and shirt prostrates face-down on a patterned rug before a seated figure on a raised red seat. The seated figure wears a red-orange robe, long garlands of white flowers and beads, a rudraksha-style necklace, and bangles, and has long dark hair bound up. A standing attendant in a red-orange robe with a rudraksha mala gestures beside him. Nearby are a brass oil lamp, a decorated brass stand, a brass pedestal, and a long pillar wrapped in white flower garlands. Other people in white ritual dress stand in the background. Appearance-based candidate: a person, seated on the raised seat with garlands, red-orange robe and rudraksha beads, being prostrated to; identity uncertain from appearance alone.
