A photograph inside a temple-style hall with golden marble walls and a white carved doorway. In the foreground a bare-chested elderly man with white ash marks on his body and a rudraksha mala draped over his chest stands with both arms raised, holding his hands above his head; he wears a rust-orange dhoti with gold borders and a rudraksha headband. Beside him a younger man in an orange-gold garment and a garland of rudraksha beads smiles and rests a hand near the elder's waist. Behind them a priest in white dhoti with gold borders and a white shawl attends to the scene, and a golden throne with red cushions and a brass tray of fruit sit in the background. a person is the bare-chested elder in saffron-orange dress with rudraksha malas and ash markings, though his appearance is not fully distinctive, so the identity is uncertain.
