A photograph of a seated meeting in an indoor hall. A bare-chested man with long swept-back dark hair, a white forehead marking, and a wrap of brown and orange cloth sits in a dark leather throne-style chair. Beside him stands an ornate gilded framed panel, and garlands of marigold flowers hang at left near a wooden pillar. Rows of people in white clothing sit cross-legged on the floor facing him, with a few seated in saffron and brown robes at the right. A standing fan and a potted plant are visible at the right edge, and a stack of books sits on a small table. The seated man is described as a person by appearance cues: long swept-back hair, a bare-chested figure with ceremonial adornment, and a throne seat.
