A photograph of a ceremonial scene in a decorated hall. A seated man on an ornate red-and-gold throne wears a red-orange garment, a rudraksha-style mala, a gold necklace and a long white garland, with vibhuti marks on his forehead. Facing him, a shirtless man in white dhoti bends forward, pressing his forehead to the seated man's feet in an act of reverence, while a second man in white dhoti stands beside them. The seated figure is an appearance-based a person. The setting suggests a padapuja-style honouring, with a red throne and red draped backdrop behind.

Behind them is a richly decorated stage with gold and red drapery, a red umbrella-like canopy and carved golden panels.2017-06-08June 08 20172017-06-08June 08 20172017-06-08June 08 20172017-06-08 +1 copiesJune 08 20172017-06-08A photograph of a ceremonial stage set with red and gold draping. A man seated on an ornate golden throne with a tall gold back is central, wearing a saffron-orange garment, rudraksha malas and a red-and-gold garland; the figure has long hair and appears to be a person, seated as the central honoured figure. Before him a shaved-headed attendant in orange holds a ceremonial object, and to the right a seated priest in white and a man in white and orange sit on the stage. A large decorated tree-shaped lamp stands at left, with a red-and-gold backdrop behind the throne and a deity-like ornament above it.2017-06-08A seated bearded man on an ornate red and gold throne sits centrally, wearing a gold crown, red and gold ceremonial robes, and a garland of marigolds and red flowers. Behind him, a gilded backdrop with golden peacock-like motifs frames the scene. Several men in white dhotis and orange or white shawls stand around the throne, some holding ritual items, forming a devotional gathering. The clothing, crown and throne suggest a formal ceremonial setting, and the page indicates a person was present, but the central figure's appearance alone is not sufficiently distinctive to confirm identity.2017-06-08August 28 20142014-08-28 +1 copiesMarch 09 20182018-03-09A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold-and-red throne, wearing a garland of pink and white flowers over a dark red robe with a leopard-print shawl. He has white vertical tilak on his forehead with a red dot, a gold chain, and a beaded rudraksha necklace. Beside him, a bare-chested person with white markings and a rudraksha mala stands, with a pink flower visible. The setting is an indoor ritual space with a red wooden panel in the background. The man's appearance is consistent with a person in a seated, honoured role, but identity is uncertain from appearance alone.2018-05-10
