The garland is made of yellow marigolds, red roses and pink flowers, with green pendant ornaments hanging from it. Behind him, a figure in a maroon turban holds a golden face-shaped object, and to the left a priest with bare chest and a rudraksha mala stands beside a metal tray of white flowers. A gold-coloured backdrop with a golden hood-like ornament surrounds the deity. The man appears to be performing a puja or padapuja. The sole visible candidate is an appearance-based match only loosely supported by the turban and dreadlocks, so identity is uncertain.2016-12-14May 31 20172017-05-31 +1 copiesApril 28 20182018-04-28
