A thick garland of white jasmine strands with red rose buds hangs across the lap and over the robe. The hands rest together in a mudra over the garland. A gold snake armlet coils on the upper arm, and a gold necklace with beaded rudraksha-style ornaments hangs at the chest. Behind the seat, a gold-edged ledge is decorated with white jasmine garlands and multicoloured marigold and rose flowers, and a microphone stand is visible at the upper right. The figure's face is not shown. a person appearance is uncertain from the framing alone.

Close-up photograph of a seated figure on a red velvet throne with gold-embossed edges, wearing saffron-orange draped clothing and a white jasmine garland with a hanging strand of red roses. The hands are folded together in the lap, holding a red and white flower garland. Red velvet bolsters flank the seat, and a border of white garlands and gold carving runs along the front of the throne. The face is not visible; the frame is cropped at the chest and feet. Appearance-based label: the figure's saffron clothing and garland suggest a sannyasi, but no identifying cues are visible enough to name anyone, so this is a sannyasi seated on a peetha, and identity is unsure.2010-12-27Close crop of a seated figure on a gold-and-red throne from the waist down, wearing saffron-orange loose trousers and a saffron-orange garment, with hands clasped in the lap over a long garland of white jasmine and red roses. A gold-embossed throne edge is draped with white jasmine garlands and red flowers, and a red velvet cushion lies behind. Bangles appear on the wrist and a gold ornate necklace hangs at the top of the frame. The face is out of frame, so no appearance-based identification is made.2010-12-27November 13 20102010-11-13 +1 copiesOctober 24 20102010-10-24A seated man with long dark hair, eyes closed and palms pressed together in namaste, sits on an ornate gilded throne with red tiger-striped cushions. He wears saffron-orange robes and a white garland with red flowers and green leaves draped around his neck and lap, plus a gold bangle on his upper arm. A white-and-red tilak marks his forehead with a red bindi. a person: long swept-back hair and saffron robes match the description, but the figure's appearance is not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so this is an appearance-based label only. Flower garlands and gilded throne suggest a welcoming ceremony. Bare feet rest on a red cushion at the bottom of the frame.2009-07-11October 12 20102010-10-12 +1 copiesA seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with intricate repoussé scrollwork and a round beaded border. He has long, swept-back dark hair, a red tilak mark on his forehead, and his eyes are closed in meditation. Garlands of white jasmine strands interspersed with red roses and green leaves hang across his shoulders and chest, and his hands rest folded in his lap over the orange cloth. Behind him, blurred orange and red fabric and yellow flower garlands suggest a decorated stage or dais.2010-08-01Close-up photo of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes and orange trousers, cross-legged on a deep red cushioned seat. The figure wears long white jasmine garlands interspersed with red roses, a gold chain with ornamental bead pendants, and a gold bangle on the wrist, with the hands held together in a mudra in the lap. Behind, a row of marigold and rose garlands in yellow, red, and purple hangs along a gold-edged dais, with a microphone visible at upper right. Only the torso, hands and legs are visible; no face is shown, and the identity of the seated figure cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the figure is described by role as a seated teacher during a ceremony.2010-12-27October 12 20102010-10-12 +1 copiesApril 29 20122012-04-29May 12 20122012-05-12September 14 20102010-09-14
