A photograph of a man in a white shirt and white trousers bowing forward with his forehead pressed to the foot of a seated figure wearing a red silk garment with red and gold tassels and a gold anklet. The man's hands rest on the seated person's foot, and a rudraksha mala is visible around his neck. Orange-clad attendants stand in the background, with a red fabric at the left edge. The scene suggests a padapuja, an act of devotional obeisance at the feet of a guru. The seated person's face is not visible, so no identification is made.
