On the left, a woman in a red and blue kurta with a green dupatta stands with her hands joined. The sitting man's appearance is compatible with the a person cues of long swept hair, saffron clothing and a garland, though the identification is uncertain, so the description is only an appearance-based label.2010-02-17Indoor photograph in a home interior with a staircase and framed artwork. A man in a striped shirt and glasses kneels with palms pressed together in namaskar before a seated young man in an orange robe. Standing behind are a tall man in white with a long orange shawl, a woman in a blue sari with a gold necklace, a woman in a cream sari, and several men in white or light shirts smiling and joining palms. Four to six people are visible in the scene, with additional onlookers at the edges. The page does not indicate a person's presence, and no candidate is confidently identified by appearance, so the standing man in the orange shawl is described only by role.2009-07-10
