A photograph of a seated man in a rust-red robe on an ornate silver and red velvet throne, with a crescent ornament on the back of the chair. He wears a dark turban with a gold brooch, a central red tilak, a long pink-and-white flower garland, a heavy gold bead necklace with a gold pendant, gold armbands and bangles. His bare feet rest on a red cushion on a silver footstool. A fire pit with bright flames and yellow bricks lies in the foreground, with fruit, flowers and offerings arranged beside it. A striped mat and carved wooden screens form the background. Appearance-based cues with ornate dress, turban and gold ornaments suggest a probable Swamiji (probable) seated in ritual honour during a homa.

Another man in a red-maroon cloth lies prostrate face-down on the floor before the throne, his forehead near the throne's footrest, with white ash markings on his arm and a rudraksha bracelet. Behind the throne are carved wooden screens, and a colourful striped mat, flower offerings and a brass vessel are on the floor. The seated figure raises one hand in a gesture while looking to the side, appearing to be the recipient of prostration in a darshan-type setting; an appearance-based candidate for a person based on the saffron-red ceremonial clothing, garland and ornate throne cues.2018-04-20April 20 20182018-04-20November 22 20162016-11-22April 20 20182018-04-20 +1 copiesApril 20 20182018-04-20 +1 copiesSeptember 21 20172017-09-21 +1 copiesJanuary 09 20182018-01-09 +1 copiesJanuary 09 20182018-01-09September 21 20172017-09-21October 03 20162016-10-03 +2 copies
