Outdoor photograph beside a calm river bank with steps and a railing. A man in a grey knit cap, grey jacket and dark vest points toward the water while a shaved-headed young person in a beige puffer vest and pink robe stands beside him. On the right, a man with long hair wears a red-brown shawl over a garland of white and red flowers, and an orange-robed attendant stands behind. In the foreground, a white marble platform holds a large marigold and rose garland, a steel plate and a small brass dish with a lamp. Another seated man sits near the railing. Yellow buildings and bare trees form the backdrop. Visible people: about five. No clearly identifiable appearance cues for a person, so the candidate is left uncertain.
