The figure wears a saffron-orange turban, saffron-orange garment, multiple strands of gold beads, a gold pendant and gold bangles, and raises one hand in blessing. In front, a brass tray holds marigold petals, flower petals and offerings. Small lingam-like Shiva forms and a lit oil lamp sit on a red cloth, and a white placard reading KAILA... TH... GAM... stands beside them. Because the figure is a printed image rather than a person, there are no physical people in the scene. The appearance-based cues of turban, saffron clothing and gold beads are consistent with a depiction of Swamiji (probable).2025-03-15HDH Jayanthi 20212021-01-23KAILASA GENOVA, ITALY on 3/11/20212021-03-11Photo 82837292020-11-14 +1 copies
