A photograph of a long-haired figure seated on a throne-like seat framed by a large arch of marigolds and roses in yellow, red, purple and white, with green leaves. The seated figure wears an orange-saffron garment, heavy gold necklaces and a red floral garland, and smiles while raising a hand in blessing. Two women attend nearby: one at left in orange clothing with a gold necklace and a hand drum, and a woman in a floral-print blouse with folded hands in front of the seated figure. A bald man in white with a rudraksha mala stands at right. The pattern of garlands and the presence of devotees suggests a darshan or honouring; the seated figure has distinctive long hair, saffron clothing and gold ornaments, consistent with a person presence. Background shows a stone temple wall.
