The person has long dark curly hair falling forward, gold earrings, and multiple beaded bracelets on the wrist and arm.

Their dark hair is tied in a topknot with a red band. Incense sticks stand in a small metal holder at left, and yellow flowers and a dark stone object are visible nearby. A faint white marking is visible on the forehead. The appearance is consistent with a sannyasi in saffron-toned robes, but the face and identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.2013-11-05
