A photograph of a felicitation at a stage in front of a golden throne. A man in a grey-green shirt and white dhoti leans forward to drape a garland of yellow and white flowers with green leaves around the neck of a seated figure in an orange and gold shawl, with a rudraksha-style red-and-white mala visible. Behind them, a monk in orange robes stands, and an older man in white clothes and a yellow-bordered cloth holds a basket. A large floral arrangement of orange, yellow, magenta and purple flowers frames an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, against a dark blue backdrop.

The figure wears an orange-saffron garment, ornate gold necklaces and a tilak on the forehead. Two men in white and grey shirts bend forward to offer homage at the throne. On the left, two saffron-robed monks with rudraksha malas stand beside a man in a checked shirt. Floral arrangements in pink and purple decorate the backdrop, and a red-and-white patterned drape fills the upper background. The figure appears to be a person by appearance cues (saffron clothing, ornate gold necklaces and garlands), but is seated on a throne being honoured, so the identity is uncertain.2012-09-23July 16 20092009-07-16October 25 20102010-10-25February 22 20132013-02-22 +1 copies
