A photograph of a seated man with long dreadlocked hair wound into a high topknot, adorned with rudraksha beads, a vertical tilak on his forehead, and a red-brown saffron-toned robe. He wears a green and white flower garland with red roses, a gold chain, and rudraksha bracelets, and sits smiling with eyes closed before an ornate silver throne with red gemstone inlays. Beside him, a man in white dhoti and shawl, bare-backed and marked with white ash lines, bows forward while another attendant in white robes and rudraksha bracelets rests a hand on his back. The attendant gesture suggests a blessing or honouring ritual.
