A photograph of two people seated in front of ornate gold-and-orange velvet thrones in a decorated tent-like setting. On the left, an older woman with grey hair wears an orange-saffron shawl and a rudraksha-style bead necklace, holding a small object in her hands and leaning toward the seated man. On the right, a man with white sacred ash markings on his forehead and arms wears a long gold-beaded necklace of large bead strands and a brown-and-gold dhoti-style garment, with his hands clasped in his lap. Behind them are a red patterned wall hanging and a striped mat with blue and gold edging. No a person appearance cues are clearly established, so the seated man is described by role only.
