A seated figure with long swept-back hair wears a rust-orange sari-style garment, rudraksha mala necklaces, gold armlets and bangles, and smiles while holding a small object and offering to a kneeling man in a white shirt with glasses who wears a white and red flower garland. Two shaven-headed young sannyasis in saffron stand behind, one with a garland and a kumkum mark on the forehead. A man in saffron holds a camera at the top left. Orange cloth and white jasmine garlands cover a sofa and the floor. Visible people: five, including the photographer.
