A man in an orange-saffron robe with long dark hair and a white flower garland stands at right behind a table of fruit, flowers and a gold-coloured ceremonial vessel, extending his hand toward a group. Several men in white dhotis and shirts stand and bend forward with folded hands or reach out to greet him; one older man in the foreground bows low near the table. Behind them, a man in an orange robe and a bald-headed man in a white shirt stand near a painted backdrop of a large green tree with birds.
