A photograph of a ceremonial embrace at a temple-style stage. Two men in white dhotis with gold-bordered shawls and white turbans with gold trim stand close together. The man on the right, facing left, wears a white shawl and a bead bracelet and places his arms around the shoulder of the man on the left, whose face is turned away and who wears white with white ash-like markings on his arm. Both wear long garlands of white jasmine and red roses. Behind them is a large arch of roses and marigolds in red, yellow, purple and white. On the left, a painted figure in orange and green with a moustache and crown stands beside gilded carved frames, and gold ornamental decoration fills the right edge.
