A smiling man in a saffron-orange robe with long swept-back black hair and a rudraksha mala stands at right, a hand resting on a man who bends forward to offer a gold-and-pink silk shawl draped over his arms. Around them, men in white shirts and white dhotis stand watching, one bald man wears a tripundra mark. Behind, a glass-fronted shrine holds a seated figure in orange with a turban and beads. The orange-robed man with long hair and rudraksha beads is an appearance-based probable match for a person in a receiving role; the shrine figure is a depiction, not a person.2010-08-26
