A photograph of a seated figure in an orange robe with long dark hair and a red bindi, sitting on a gold ornate throne with a red cushion, raising a wooden rod in one hand toward a young man standing before him. The standing young man wears a grey-and-white patterned short-sleeved shirt and grey trousers and is turned toward the seated figure. Beside the throne are fruits, possibly apples and a papaya, and a flower-decorated backdrop of gerbera daisies, chrysanthemums and white garlands. A man in white clothes with glasses stands at the right edge, and another orange-robed attendant stands behind. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the a person description, with long swept-back hair, orange robe and a bindi, but the page does not confirm his presence, so this is an appearance-based label.
