A cut-out photograph of a smiling man standing against a white background, wearing a maroon-brown turban topped with an ornate silver crown-like ornament and rudraksha beads. He wears layered gold and silver necklaces, a heavy beaded garland, and a maroon tunic with an ornate gold belt. In his right hand he holds a tall silver staff with a golden finial marked with a red stone, and his left hand is raised in a blessing gesture. Maroon sashes hang from his arms, and his wrists are covered in gold and beaded bangles. The page is an online event report, but the image itself shows a single figure in ceremonial regalia with no other people visible.
