Close photo of bare feet resting on a pair of ornate bronze padukas, the sandal-shaped footwear of a guru, placed on a draped brown-orange velvet cloth. Each paduka has a small finial and a carved, spiked base, and a lime-green fruit sits beside each foot. The person's legs are visible from the knees down wearing a brown garment with gold border trim, and a maroon drape hangs in the background. This suggests a padapuja, the ritual washing and worship of a guru's feet, though no full ceremony is visible. No faces are shown, and the scene is dimly lit.2016-12-23December 23 20162016-12-23December 23 20162016-12-23Close-up photograph of a bare foot resting on a metal foot-massage device with spiked ridges and small finial-topped posts, with yellow balls set among the spikes.
