A photograph of a man seated cross-legged on a low wooden platform outdoors, wearing an orange saffron wrap and dhoti with a long dark rudraksha mala. He has long swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead, his eyes lowered, one hand extended toward a brass vessel at the left edge and the other resting on his knee. Behind him stand an orange-red stepped plinth and garlands of yellow and white flowers with a purple bead. Grey ash is scattered on the ground. This may be a person-style sannyasi presence, though the appearance cues are only partially clear.
