Photograph of a domestic room with pink walls where a seated figure in saffron-orange robes, a red and white flower garland and a wooden-handled ceremonial staff is receiving a ritual water-pouring over his feet. A woman in a teal sari kneels and pours from a small vessel over a brass tray holding lemons. Around them, a woman in a white and red sari sits on the floor, a man in a blue shirt holds two small children, a young woman in a brown top presses her palms together, and several saffron-robed attendants and white-clad youths stand behind. Young girls in school uniforms of blue and grey look on, and a photographer with a camera is at left.
