A photograph of a long row of seated saffron-robed sadhus on a stage, seated behind silver tables heaped with marigold garlands and orange-yellow flowers on silver plates. Several elderly bearded men wear orange and saffron robes, rudraksha malas and forehead tilaks; one wears a long grey beard and an orange shawl, another has white hair in a topknot. A woman in a red-and-gold turban and gold necklace sits among them holding a sheet of paper. Behind them stand gold ornate thrones and pink-and-gold ceremonial decorations under a dark red backdrop. The seated men are not identifiable as a person by the cues given, so the role is sadhu.
