A photograph on a gilded stage set with ornate golden lion-headed pillars, carved medallions and a red-cushioned golden throne behind. A standing man in a rust-orange draped robe with a long beaded rudraksha-style mala and bangle smiles and holds hands with a younger man in a white short-sleeved shirt, white trousers and black belt. Both stand on a multicoloured rangoli design on the wooden floor. The orange-robed figure shows distinctive ceremonial adornments and a swept-back hairstyle, consistent with a person presence on this stage, while the other man is a devotee or attendant. Two gold-framed chairs flank the stage.
