A barefoot figure in a flowing saffron-orange wrap walks down a central aisle in front of a red draped stage with white and maroon swag valances. Dark hair falls past the shoulders and the figure holds a small object in one hand. Seated devotees line both sides of the aisle, many wearing white headbands, sitting on mats and chairs with bags and water bottles nearby. A white altar-like platform and a yellow ornamental backdrop are visible behind the stage area. Appearance-based label: a person, given the saffron wrap, long hair and central walking position, though the face is not clearly visible.
