A seated man in a pink dhoti-style garment with a dark brown border and a brown turban with a red bindi sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne before a dark blue curtain. A gold bead mala hangs around his neck. Two devotees lean forward to honour him: a man in a light grey shirt and blue jeans on the left, and a woman in a white sari with a gold-bordered dress on the right, who touches his feet. His bare feet rest on a red cushion with a patterned mat. The seated man is smiling broadly. A small purple logo appears in the upper right corner.
