A man with long, swept-back black hair and white vibhuti tripundra on his forehead walks barefoot on a dusty path in front of a red building. He wears an orange saffron-coloured dhoti and a leopard-print shawl, with a heavy gold ceremonial necklace and a long red-and-white flower garland. Behind him, other figures in orange robes and white dhotis stand near a black metal staircase and a table draped in orange cloth. A large printed banner with photographs and text hangs on the wall above.
