A photo of an outdoor ashram setting with a red-and-white striped pole running diagonally across the frame, a pink-and-white flower garland, and a striped pink and blue cloth on the paving. A standing man in a rust-orange robe with a long gold pendant and gold beaded necklace looks downward, with white and red forehead markings; a pink-and-white flower garland hangs over his shoulders. Beside him, a bare-shouldered seated person with matted hair wrapped in a rust cloth is partly visible at the lower right. Green trees and red structures are in the background. Presentation resembles the page's a person reference, with garland, gold ornaments and saffron robe, but the face and features are not clearly distinctive enough to confirm identity.
