November 19 20142014-11-19November 22 20152015-11-22A photograph of a ceremonial stage setting. A seated man in a red-orange turban, saffron-red robe and multiple beaded rudraksha malas sits on an ornate gold throne carved with lion heads, with a microphone stand beside him. A young boy in white kurta and white trousers, wearing a red shawl, stands before him holding his hand. Behind them are ornate silver and white decorative arches, brass oil lamps and deity murti with garlands. The red-and-gold stage setting and throne are prominent. Whether the seated man is a person cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the role is described as the seated man in saffron-red robes.2015-09-11 +1 copiesA photograph of a ritual at a shrine with a temple-style backdrop.
