July 18 20112011-07-18A man with short dark hair, a red bindi and a rudraksha mala with ornate beads sits on a red velvet seat in front of a gold-embossed throne backdrop, smiling as he turns toward a young boy in a grey long-sleeved top who leans in close beside him. The man wears a magenta and gold-bordered shawl over a pink garment. Behind them a large printed photograph shows a red-roofed temple complex with a crowd. Red tiger-striped cushions and a red table are in the foreground.

A gilded ornate throne back stands at left. Behind them, gold necklaces hang on deity murtis draped in garlands, and a seated woman in white with magenta drapery sits in the background.
