April 19 20152015-04-19A seated figure in an orange saffron turban and bare-chested orange garment wears long garlands of pink, white, orange and red flowers and gold armlets. She smiles and extends her hand toward a man in a white short-sleeved shirt with a rust-coloured rudraksha-style mala, who bends forward with cupped hands holding wrapped sweets. Behind them are potted green plants, a cloth-draped table, a small golden deity figure at upper left and a wall fan. The scene suggests an offering of prasad sweets. The seated figure is not an appearance-confirmed a person candidate, so the identity is left unsure.2015-04-19April 19 20152015-04-19April 27 20152015-04-27A photograph of a seated figure in an orange-saffron turban, bare-shouldered orange cloth and layered garlands of pink, red, orange and white flowers, handing a small packet to a smiling man in a white short-sleeved shirt wearing a long rudraksha mala.
