Photograph of a seated figure in orange robes with long dark hair tied back, on a red cushioned seat with ornate gold lion-head armrests, receiving an offering from a standing devotee. Around them, people in orange and white clothes stand with palms pressed together in namaskar, and a woman in a yellow blouse with a white dupatta, wearing gold bangles, folds her hands. In the foreground, a person in white kneels with head bowed toward the seated figure. A man in a white shirt holds a long stick or implement toward the seat. A gold-carved backdrop and a red cloth are visible at the top right. Seated figure's appearance matches the page's a person reference, but the cues are only long hair and orange robes, so identity is uncertain.

Devotees in white and floral clothing press together with hands folded in namaskar before a seated figure on a gold-and-red throne. The seated person wears orange robes, a multi-strand gold necklace, a red bindi and long dark hair, and is smiling while touching an orange cloth.
