A photograph of a bearded man seated on an ornate golden throne with a jeweled backrest, holding a tall silver staff topped with a round finial. He wears rust-brown robes, a white flower garland, a gold chain with a large pendant, and a white tilak on his forehead. A woman in a cream blouse and yellow-gold sari with a red hair tie offers folded orange cloth to him, while another woman in a dark red sari with a rudraksha mala stands beside her with hands joined. Behind them are gilded carvings of a female figure and a lion-like motif. A man with long hair and a crown-like headwear, styled in the manner of the sannyasi described on the page, appears as the seated figure; the appearance is consistent with a person, seated and receiving offerings, though this is an appearance-based label only.
