A central man in a maroon-brown dhoti-style garment wears long white and red flower garlands draped over his shoulders, a heavy gold and beaded necklace with a gold pendant, gold armbands, and a tilak on his forehead; he has a probable Swamiji appearance with swept-back long hair and ornate ceremonial adornments, and walks forward.
