A man with curly brown hair and a small vertical tilak on his forehead sits with his eyes lowered, wearing an orange shawl printed with repeated black script and a white-and-gold cloth draped over his shoulder. Beside him, a woman in a dark top and gold earrings holds a folded white paper, and a hand with red-painted nails and a red thread at the wrist is visible at the left edge. Behind them, figures in cream and gold saris stand in a softly lit hall. The man is an appearance-based a person candidate by his orange shawl, but his features and dress are not distinctive enough to confirm the identity, so a person is unsure.
