Outdoor photo of a bald man in a saffron-orange robe and wire-rimmed glasses holding up a large blue silk shawl with gold brocade pattern for a woman in an orange sari who bows forward to receive it. Pink and white flower garlands are visible at left in the foreground. Behind them, several onlookers stand near a pink building, a banana plant and a white van marked with partial lettering. A wooded hillside and trees form the background. The man's presentation shows a bald head and saffron robe but no long hair, crown or rudraksha mala, so the appearance cue is insufficient for a probable identification; he is described by role as a sannyasi in saffron robes receiving the garland and shawl.
