Indoor photograph of a seated figure in a maroon-red robe with a gold-bordered shawl and a red hair tie in a bun, extending an arm toward a man in a white kurta and white badge lanyard who raises both open palms. Beside them is a large gold-coloured ornamental object in the foreground, and red cloth covers the seating area. Behind them, several people stand in white and brown clothing, one in a white dhoti, with a blue and white banner on the wall. The seated figure's appearance shows some cues but the identity is uncertain, so the candidate is described by role as a seated teacher in red robes. Six people are visible.
