Photograph of a smiling man with eyes lowered walking barefoot across striped woven mats in a brick-walled hall. He wears a rust-red sleeveless robe with gold-bordered drape, a heavy gold necklace with a large gold pendant, and an orange-red thread bracelet; a white tilak marks his forehead and he holds a silver-tipped staff with a horse-head handle. Behind him a woman in a teal sari holds red containers near a dark wooden door and a silver-framed chair, while a woman in a white sari with gold border stands at left. A standing fan sits by the wall. a person: long swept-back hair, rudraksha-style gold necklace and saffron-toned ascetic robe match the candidate description, though the face is not used for identification.
