A photograph of a devotee in a peach-coloured dhoti and shawl with a long dark beard, vibhuti tripundra on his forehead and a mala on his wrist, bowing forward to touch the forehead of a seated figure. 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.
