A photograph of a ceremonial presentation in front of a large backdrop painted with Hindu deities, including a figure with a bow and a blue-skinned deity adorned with garlands. A man in a saffron-orange turban, orange robe and long dark rudraksha mala stands centre, receiving a framed picture of a seated figure with a halo; two men in orange and red shawls and a man in white kurta and gold bracelet hold the frame, and an older man in maroon kurta and orange shawl with a red tilak on his forehead reaches in from the right. The orange-robed man is a candidate for a person based on his saffron turban, rudraksha mala and ornate clothing, but the identification is uncertain.
