A photograph of a man in white ceremonial dhoti with gold border holding up a framed painting toward the viewer, at what appears to be a satsang or ceremony. He wears a long rudraksha mala and bracelets and has a white tripundra on his forehead. The framed painting, with ornate gold-leaf detailing and a dark wood frame, depicts a seated figure in a black turban, orange robes and layered garlands, on a golden throne before green drapes. Orange cloth hangs from the frame, and a woman in a maroon sari with purple flower garlands stands at the right edge. The painting is a depiction of a seated guru figure, while the man holding it is a priest or devotee.
