Photograph of a ceremonial blessing inside a decorated hall with dark red drapes and a golden floor runner. A seated figure in an orange-red turban, orange-gold robe and a layered pearl and red bead necklace places both hands on the crown of a man lying face-down in white clothing, with his head bowed. Nearby, a bald man in orange robes with a rudraksha mala and a yellow forehead mark sits watching. A woman in white with an orange-and-red striped shawl stands with palms joined at chest level. Brass oil lamp and a flower garland are at left, and a tray of mangoes sits in the foreground. Other people in orange and red saris and robes move in the background. The turbaned figure may be a person; the appearance cues are a turban, a saffron-orange robe and a rudraksha-adorned chest, but identity is uncertain.
