Photograph of a seated ritual in a courtyard with a brick wall and carved wooden screens behind. A man seated on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, eyes closed, wears a dark red-brown robe and a white vibhuti mark on his forehead; a person candidate with long swept-back hair and bearded face, though the shown cues are limited to the throne, robe and hair. Before him, a woman in orange garments with a jewelled necklace and hair bun holds a small vessel, while a man in an orange turban and bare-chested with a white necklace holds a silver tray of pink and yellow flower petals. Red floral petals cover the floor and a fire pit burns in the foreground, with a basket of oranges at left.
