A photograph of an outdoor gathering in front of a red-painted building with a white welcome centre signboard at right. In the foreground a man with curly dark hair wears a bright orange shawl over white ritual clothes and a rudraksha mala, looking down. Beside him a woman in a cream and gold-bordered sari carries a light blue striped bag, and a younger woman in white with a white shawl stands at left. Several other people in white kurtas and sarees mill about on a dirt path among trees, some with prayer beads, with additional figures visible in the background. Whether the orange-shawled man is the a person candidate cannot be established from appearance alone.
