The seated figure wears an orange-red turban, a red-brown shawl and a long garland of white flowers with red blossoms. Standing around them are several men: on the left, a man in a checked grey-green shawl and white clothes with a tilak mark; on the right, a bare-chested man with a long rudraksha mala and gold-bordered white cloth, and another man in a dark-patterned garment with long rudraksha beads. A hand is raised in the foreground on the right. The scene suggests a devotional gathering with onlookers around the seated figure. Appearance-based label: a person cannot be confirmed from clothing and cues alone, so identity is left uncertain.2016-03-29December 05 20142014-12-05A smiling man in a rust-orange turban and saffron-orange robe stands centre frame, wearing a white and red flower garland and a rudraksha mala, with a small red mark on his forehead.

Around him, several men in saffron and orange clothing and rudraksha malas crowd close, one in white with a gold border and a white tilak on his forehead, another gesturing with an outstretched arm. An elderly woman in white sari stands behind the chair.

Behind him, a man in a white shirt and a man in white dhoti with red and gold border stand partly visible in a dim hall, one bending forward near the chair.
