A seated figure in an orange saffron robe with a red-bordered cloth and a long beaded rudraksha-style mala sits on an ornate gilded throne with red velvet cushions, in front of a painted backdrop of a large banyan tree. Several people stand around him: a man in a white shirt and dark trousers at left, a man in orange dhoti and shawl at left-centre, a man in a striped light shirt leaning in toward the seated figure with his hands raised near him, and a woman in a white sari with gold border at right. The seated figure has long dark hair and is barefoot on a red footstool. Gold-tinted throne carvings and a bright white-and-gold sari dominate the scene. The image is a photograph of an indoor ceremonial setting.
