A figure in a red-maroon turban and maroon robe with gold borders, wearing a long red and white flower garland, faces away from the camera and reaches toward a visitor. A bald priest in an orange-gold bordered cloth with a rudraksha mala and white forehead markings stands beside them, gesturing. On the right, a man in a pink striped shirt, blue dhoti and gold wristwatch, with white forehead markings, smiles and gestures with open hands.

The seated figure wears a rust-red turban, a saffron-and-gold garment, an orange marigold garland, gold bangles and a rudraksha-style necklace, and sits before an ornate gold throne with carved relief. A brass oil lamp stands beside them against a pink and red cosmic backdrop. The bowing devotee and the seated person are both physically present. The seated figure has a distinctive turban and ceremonial garlanding, but the appearance is not conclusive, so the candidate is uncertain.2015-10-26April 26 20152015-04-26
