A photograph of a seated figure on a white throne-like seat decorated with white flower garlands and green leaves overhead. The seated man has long dark hair and wears a white dhoti-style cloth with gold border, a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace; his appearance is consistent with the page's a person reference, though not certain. An older man in white clothes with hands folded in greeting leans in toward him, while women in white with orange shawls sit or kneel nearby, one with hands folded. A standing man in white and a wall-mounted fan are visible at the right, with bright orange and green decorations behind.
