A seated bearded man in an ornate silver carved throne with a leopard-print cushion, wearing an orange-red turban, rudraksha malas on his neck and arms, a gold necklace, and a rust-orange robe with gold border, smiling while extending his arm toward a boy. A woman in a rust-brown sari with a rudraksha mala stands beside a tall wooden pole topped with a golden mallet wrapped in a leopard-print cloth, the pole being the mallakhamba apparatus. A boy in a red shirt bends forward wearing a yellow-orange cloth, and a young man in a blue striped shirt stands at left with other onlookers partly visible. Red curtains and a decorated pillar with ornate carvings form the backdrop. The man's appearance with turban, rudraksha malas, gold necklace and orange robe is consistent with the a person candidate, so this is an appearance-based label only.
