Outdoor photograph of a smiling man with long dark hair and a beard, shoulders draped in thick garlands of red and yellow marigold flowers with green leaves, hands pressed together at his chest, eyes lifted upward. Bare-shouldered and wearing gold bangles and a rudraksha-style bead necklace with gold ornaments. Behind him, other people in ochre and saffron clothing and white forehead markings stand in a blurred green setting, one holding a lit oil lamp in the lower right. A man at left wears a red turban and beaded malas. The figure appears to be a person based on the long hair, garlands, gold jewellery and bead malas, though the identification is uncertain.
