A photograph of a seated man in a rust-red sleeveless garment with gold-trimmed hem, wearing a leopard-print headband, a gold necklace and rudraksha bead bracelets and armbands. Long dark dreadlocks fall past his shoulders, and yellow turmeric paste marks his forehead. He sits with eyes closed in front of a microphone stand, beside a brass oil lamp, a yellow-stained ritual setup and a silver-embossed backrest. The appearance cues of long dreadlocks, rudraksha malas and ornate ceremonial clothing make him a person seated in person.
