Photograph of a ceremonial scene before a backdrop of yellow and red marigold and rose garlands and an ornate gold-and-jewelled panel. A seated man in a rust-brown robe, a red-brown turban, a gold chest pendant and a red-and-yellow flower garland smiles toward the lower frame. Beside him a man in saffron-orange robes wears a long rudraksha mala and a ceremonial necklace and holds lemons. In the foreground a devotee in a rust-coloured shirt and white dhoti bows deeply, forehead touching the seat's silver base, near a silver lion-form stand and a leopard-print cushion. The turban and robe colours of the seated man fit the page's a person flag, but the face and figure cues are not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so the label is unsure.
