Many wear orange and saffron shawls and scarves over white, yellow and striped clothing. In the foreground right, a figure in a saffron-orange turban and orange robes with gold-coloured trim sits on a white cushioned seat with a patterned cloth, hands lifted in the same gesture; the figure's appearance is consistent with the page's reference to a person but the identification is uncertain. Potted plants and a small wall lamp are visible at the edges.2011-07-29A group of devotees in orange and saffron shawls stands and kneels on a red carpeted floor in an indoor hall with brick walls, raising both arms overhead in a devotional gesture.
