A photograph of a seated man in a rust-red shawl and a long gold-bead necklace, with long dark hair swept into a knot and yellow sandalwood paste on his forehead, placing his right hand on the head of a kneeling devotee. The devotee wears a white shirt, orange-red shawl and rudraksha-style mala and holds his palms together. Behind them stand a golden throne and a carved wooden staff with a serpent-like head, against gold draped fabric. A golden kalasha-style vessel is partly visible at the lower left. This appears to be a blessing or darshan moment.
