A photograph of a long-haired figure seated on a red and gold throne, wearing a tiger-striped brown top, rudraksha beads, bangles and a multicolour flower garland, with hands raised in blessing over a bowed man kneeling in white kurta with a saffron-orange shawl. A standing man in white clothes and an orange lanyard stands behind, beside a silver trident. A gilded ornamental chair edge and dark backdrop frame the scene; the seated figure has distinctive long hair and ornate adornments, a person candidate in a blessing exchange with a devotee.
