Six people stand in a row on a flower-decorated stage before a painted backdrop of a snow-capped mountain under a blue sky. The centre figure wears a saffron-orange robe, a multi-strand beaded necklace and a leopard-print shawl, with long wavy hair and a red mark on the forehead; the figure appears to be a sannyasi and fits the a person profile on cues of long hair, saffron clothing and ornate necklaces, with identity uncertain. Flanking figures wear white and cream shirts and white dhotis with gold borders, and one in a maroon kurta with a red and gold shawl. Several hold white folders with gold emblems, and the man second from right has his palms pressed together. Marigold and red flower garlands line the stage edge.
