Outdoor event on bare dirt ground. A seated man in an orange-saffron turban, orange kurta and orange shawl sits in front of a red-cushioned chair, wearing a round yellow-and-orange rosette badge on his chest. Beside him a standing easel-style banner shows a portrait labelled "Bala Gangadharanath Swami" with a marigold and red flower garland. Behind him more banners with garlands and a smaller seated boy in yellow clothing eating. The seated man's identity is not established by visible cues here, so he is described by role only.
