A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions, wearing a rudraksha mala and a white tilak on his forehead. He smiles while holding a white cloth and gesturing toward a tiered terracotta kalasha with white painted patterns, held by a woman in a white sari with an orange shawl and bangles. Behind him stands a smiling woman in a white sari with rudraksha beads and a tilak, and a silver trident stands among green potted plants against a yellow draped backdrop with fruit at the lower left.

February 15 20152015-02-15February 15 20152015-02-15A seated man in a rust-orange robe with a rudraksha mala and a white vibhuti mark on his forehead sits on a gold-carved throne draped with a red cushion and a tiger-striped cloth. He extends his hand toward a tall terracotta pot with white painted patterns, held by a woman in a white sari with a saffron shawl. A second woman in a white sari, seen from behind, sits nearby. A silver trident stands behind the pot among green potted plants, and a yellow satin backdrop with gold-decorated ornaments appears behind them. The scene looks like a ritual offering or darshan.2015-02-15A photograph of a seated figure in a saffron-orange turban with a peacock feather and red plume, wearing a saffron-orange wrap, gold necklaces and gold bangles, seated on a red zebra-print cushioned throne in front of an ornate gold carved backdrop. Two women in white saris with green and gold borders stand to the right; one holds a silver tray and the other a small brass offering item. Before the seated figure is a terracotta pot with a white cloth-covered top, and a blue patterned fabric hangs behind.2014-08-17April 26 20172017-04-26A photograph of a seated man in saffron-orange robes with a swept-back hairstyle, a tilak on his forehead, a gold-and-beaded necklace, and rudraksha-style beads, sitting on an ornate gold throne. He smiles while holding the hand of an older woman in a white sari who kneels before him and holds a red cloth. Silver trident staffs and a floral garland stand near the throne, and a bald man in orange stands behind. The background is draped in red and orange fabric. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has several qualifying cues (swept-back hair, saffron robes, ornate gold necklace, rudraksha beads) and sits on a throne, so the appearance-based label applies.2013-02-08A photograph of a seated man with a white tilak on his forehead, wearing a rust-red shawl over his shoulder, a dark orange-red dhoti and a multi-strand rudraksha mala. He smiles while holding out a small terracotta vessel toward a seated woman in a white sari with a gold border and orange-brown shawl. Behind him is a gold-covered throne with a red cushion, and a yellow drape with green leaves. Oranges and gold-leaf plates sit on a tray in the foreground. Two more women are partly visible, one in a dark red shawl and one with a rudraksha mala, both smiling. Their heads and backs appear in the lower frame.2015-02-15A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold throne with a carved, arched back, wearing a maroon-red robe with a brown-orange shawl draped over the shoulders, multiple gold-toned beaded necklaces, and a red bindi with white markings on his forehead. He holds a lit incense stick or small wick in one hand above a large silver bowl on a green-cloth-covered surface, smiling. To the right, a woman in a white sari with a red border kneels with palms pressed together in namaskar. Behind her, a person in white with a rudraksha mala and a white head covering stands. A tall silver trident stands at the left edge, beside a silver jug or kalasha on a small stand. The backdrop is woven bamboo matting. A visible identifying cue of the seated figure is limited, so the a person value is unsure.2016-03-30February 15 20152015-02-15May 26 20142014-05-26December 24 20152015-12-24April 27 20142014-04-27
