A photograph of a seated figure in an orange-saffron robe and matching saffron head covering on a red and silver ornate throne, decorated with yellow and white marigold and jasmine garlands and a red-and-blue arch with an Om emblem. Two men in shirts lean in to place a large multicoloured flower garland over the seated figure's shoulders, while a third man in a white dhoti and shirt bends forward at the lower right to touch an offering tray. Brass and steel plates holding flowers, fruit, a bell and vessels sit on the floor in front, with scattered petals. Two girls watch from the background. A figure with saffron-coloured robe, turban and layered garlands is shown on the throne, consistent with the page's a person flag but appearance is not distinctive enough to confirm identity; the seated figure is labelled only by role here.
