A seated man in an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, with multiple strands of rudraksha beads draped over his shoulders and gold serpent-shaped armlets, sits with eyes closed and palms pressed together in prayer. He is shaved-headed with white horizontal tilak lines and a red bindi. Behind him, several boys in maroon robes with gold trim sit in meditation. Brass vessels, a small silver tray, flower petals and a smoking incense or lamp are arranged on a silver-edged platform and orange cloth in front of him. The man is a priest or devotee; no appearance-based identification is made.
