A photograph of an outdoor evening event on a raised orange stage in front of a large seated crowd. A central figure sits on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, wearing an orange robe, a white flower garland and a red-orange garland, and a long-haired appearance; the throne is framed by tall arrangements of marigolds, yellow, white and purple flowers and green foliage. Two orange-robed attendants sit on the stage beside the throne, one with long hair and a flower garland holding a cloth-wrapped object, the other holding a silver tray with garlands. Men in white clothes and orange shawls kneel and sit at the front of the stage, and audience members fill the stands behind. Whether the central figure is the subject of the page cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the identity is marked unsure.
