November 11 20172017-11-11A man in a rust-red turban with gold ornaments stands with eyes closed and a broad smile during an evening ritual outdoors. He wears a pink and white flower garland, a heavy gold necklace and multiple gold pendants, a red-brown cloth and gold armlets. In his left hand he holds a lit oil lamp with a bright flame; in his right hand a small silver handbell. Behind him, people in dark clothing with white forehead markings stand with palms joined in prayer, and palm fronds and flower garlands frame the scene. The setting is night-time greenery. Swamiji (probable), the figure centred with a lamp and bell, is identified by his red turban with gold ornaments, long gold necklaces and flower garland.2017-11-11December 05 20142014-12-05November 11 20172017-11-11December 02 20172017-12-02December 02 20172017-12-02Night outdoor scene among dark palm foliage. A smiling man in the foreground wears a maroon-brown turban with a gold crescent ornament, gold earrings, thick garlands of pink and white flowers, layered gold necklaces, a gold armband and bare chest. Behind him a man in an orange-saffron cloth with rudraksha beads and a white forehead band holds a flaming oil lamp, and other figures in white and orange stand nearby. Pink flower offerings lie in a tray at lower right.
