A photograph of an indoor reception room with red and gold furnishings, a golden throne-like chair and a small portrait in the background. In the foreground, a man in rust-red robes with a red-and-gold turban and a long brown rudraksha mala leans forward, reaching to touch the hand of an elderly bearded man in orange robes and an orange turban. A second bearded man in orange stands at the right edge. Several people stand in the background, including women in white and a woman in green. The red patterned carpet and potted plants complete the setting.
