The young man has a shaved head, silver earrings, a saffron-orange robe with pink trim and a beaded bracelet. Behind them stand a golden cobra-hooded seat and a silver staff, with a peacock-feather fan at left and a gold ritual vessel at lower left against red drapery. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, a ceremonial gold garland and a red-orange wrap, and is conferring a blessing on the kneeling disciple.2014-07-25December 16 20132013-12-16May 01 20142014-05-01December 08 20132013-12-08May 05 20142014-05-05A seated man in red-and-saffron robes with a garland of white, red and yellow flowers blesses a young boy with shaved hair and a small topknot who wears an orange-saffron shawl. The man has a white tilak on his forehead and his hand rests on the boy's head. Behind the boy, a ceremonial staff wrapped in white cloth stands upright. A gold-colored lion or animal-form seat or throne piece is at lower left, and a gold throne with red cushioning sits in the background. Another man in saffron robes stands behind, and a woman in white watches at right. The setting is an indoor hall with pale walls and a framed painting above.2014-05-13
