Outdoors on a raised white platform beside a wide river under hazy winter light, a figure in a bright orange fleece cap and orange-red top with rudraksha and gold-bead malas sits on a carved silver-toned chair with hands pressed together in greeting and a broad smile. Opposite, an elderly white-bearded man in orange-and-peach robes and an orange shawl bows low, holding a small paper cup. Two monks in orange shawls stand behind them, and a person in orange garments stands at the right edge.

A man in an orange turban-style cap and orange-red robes kneels and drapes an orange cloth over the head of an older bearded sadhu in orange and beige robes who bows forward, a silver trident-topped staff (trishul) planted beside him.
