A man in saffron-orange draped clothing walks through a carved wooden doorway with brass fittings, smiling, with a rudraksha mala of large brown beads and a gold necklace. He wears a red tilak mark on his forehead. To the left, an older man in white and yellow ritual dress stands with palms pressed together in greeting. Behind the doorway a white illuminated tree and white curtains are visible. The man in orange has long swept-back hair and distinctive ceremonial adornments, a compatible presentation for the event described, so this is an appearance-based probable identification as a person, walking in as a sannyasi at the event.
