A standing figure with very long dark hair wound under a rust-red turban, wearing a leopard-print wrap, a rust-brown garment, gold armlets and bangles and a beaded necklace, faces away from the camera toward a large seated gathering. Seated devotees fill the hall, many with red-orange markings on their foreheads and some wearing white or pastel clothing. A golden staff with a flame-topped finial stands beside him, and a gilded bull and a tiger-striped cushion are visible at right. A large screen at upper left shows a similar robed figure with a turban and garland. An arm is raised at lower right. a person is not visually confirmed given the back-turned pose, so this is only a candidate; the standing figure wears a turban and long hair with a leopard wrap, but identity is uncertain.
