A photograph of a seated figure on an orange-red cushioned throne against an ornate white and gold tiled wall decorated with marigold and red flower garlands. The seated figure has long dark hair, a bare chest and a white dhoti with a white shawl, with distinctive long swept-back hair and bare-chested adornment cues. Several devotees in white clothes kneel or bow at his feet and sides, some with orange and gold-bordered shawls. A standing man at left in white and an orange shawl holds a rudraksha-style mala. One woman at right in white with an orange shawl holds a small object, and a figure at far right in white holds a plate. Several people are visible, and the image is a photo of a ceremonial padapuja-style honouring.
