A photograph of a food-serving scene at an indoor event with white tent walls and a blue curtain. A bare-chested man with long dark hair, wearing an orange-red wrap and a rudraksha mala, sits on an ornate gold-carved throne-like seat and reaches out to hand a scoop of yellow rice to a woman in a purple floral kurta with a lanyard. Behind them, women in cream and white sarees with red-brown shawls and beaded malas stand around steel pots and bowls of yellow rice. A man in a white shirt with glasses leans in, and a woman in an orange sari watches. The man on the throne shows distinctive long swept-back hair and saffron-orange clothing, so he is a person candidate, seated and serving food.

A man in a saffron-red and gold dhoti with a rudraksha mala sits on an ornate gold throne-like chair and scoops rice from a large silver bowl, passing food to a woman in a green sari and red shawl who holds a plate. Behind them a woman in white with a red shawl stands at a table of steel pots, another woman in a white and gold sari serves from a pot, and a young man in a white t-shirt with a red shawl sits at the right. Banana leaves, scattered rice and a blue curtain complete the scene. The seated man is presented as a person, identified by saffron-and-gold ceremonial dress, rudraksha mala and gold throne, but his face and hair are not clearly distinctive enough to confirm.2015-12-20
