A smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair stands before a deep red curtain, raising his right hand in a blessing gesture. He wears a red saffron-style garment draped over one shoulder with a patterned border and a long necklace of gold and pink beads. A red bindi marks his forehead. Cues such as long hair, ornate red attire and beaded necklace align with the page's reference to a person, a candidate for the speaker at this event, so this is an appearance-based label: a person, giving a blessing on stage.
