Photograph of a seated man in a rust-red dhoti-style cloth, bare-chested with a long white flower garland and a tripundra-style forehead mark with a red dot, holding a bunch of bananas and smiling. A man with grey hair and blue shirt bows forward, touching his feet. Behind them, a woman in orange sari with rudraksha mala stands beside a golden throne and a red zebra-striped armchair. Deity murti and draped altar cloths are visible in the background. Appearance-based cues suggest a person seated in the centre, though identity is uncertain.

Photograph of a seated figure with long swept-back dark hair, yellow turmeric marks on the face and a red bindi, wearing a green leaf garland over an orange-red cloth, holding a peacock feather fan with a golden lion-headed throne beside him. He extends his right hand to touch the forehead of a standing man in a white shirt and orange shawl, who has his right hand raised to his head in devotion. Behind them a large gold ornamental backdrop and a gold deity murti appear, and a partially visible woman in an orange shawl stands at the right edge. The seated figure has distinctive long hair and ceremonial adornment with a peacock feather, consistent with a person giving blessing to a devotee. Two physical people are clearly visible.
