A photograph of a seated figure in orange sannyasi robes on an ornate gold throne with a red cushioned seat and carved lion-like armrests. He has long dark hair swept back and a red bindi on his forehead, and a microphone stands before him. Beside the throne, a woman in a white sari with a gold border and yellow shawl kneels and offers a small object held in both hands. Behind them, a bald man in orange robes holds white papers, and a bearded man in orange stands at the left edge. Bottles of water, oranges and books sit on a side table, and a fan and orange-draped chairs fill the tent-like setting.
