A seated figure in saffron and orange robes, wearing a tall orange turban, a long rudraksha mala and gold bangles, sits at the right receiving a crowd in a plain room with yellow walls and red curtains. Devotees press close: a woman in a pink sari with a gold necklace, a woman in a red blouse with a white jasmine garland, and men in white shirts and dhotis. A devotee bends forward with hands raised and another stands with palms together. A man in a white shirt holds fruit near the seated figure's hand. A framed saffron-robed portrait hangs on the wall at upper right. The seated figure's appearance with turban, saffron robes, rudraksha mala and gold ornaments is consistent with a person, with the page noting the event; identity is uncertain from appearance alone.
