A photograph inside a white-walled exhibition booth under stage lights. A man in a saffron-orange robe with a matching orange turban and long dark hair stands at right, smiling and clapping his hands toward a man in a pale pink shirt and pale pink dhoti with red borders at left, who presses his hands to his chest. A young girl in a red dress stands at left. Behind them, a man in orange robes holds a booklet, and others in the background watch. A table holds stacks of booklets and a poster showing an older man in orange with the printed caption "Swami Siddhananda". The orange-robed figure has distinctive long hair and an orange turban, but the appearance is not certain enough to confirm an identity.
