A dimly lit night photograph of a bearded man with long dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead, smiling and looking downward. He wears a rust-red garment and a heavy gold chain necklace with a round pendant. Figures crowd around him in shadow, one on the right with white markings on the forehead and another wearing a floral garland of pink and yellow flowers. The man appears to be a person: long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace and a red-robed sannyasi's garment, with the flagged event context. Behind him, a figure with a decorative headpiece is partly visible on the left.
