Indoor photo in a narrow stone-walled temple corridor. In the foreground a man in saffron-orange and gold-bordered dhoti and shawl wears a gold crown-like headband and a long beaded rudraksha-style mala with a large gold pendant; he points at a wall of painted panels with red, yellow and green temple and figure scenes. Two monks in orange robes walk behind him, one bald and smiling, the other with a mala. Fluorescent light and grey granite pillars surround them. The man's appearance with crown and mala is a possible a person candidate, but the identification is uncertain from the image alone.
