Three people stand on a stage before a dark blue curtain, exchanging a tray. A figure on the left with long, swept-back dark hair wears a sleeveless orange top and orange dhoti-style wrap, reaching forward to take a brass tray holding a flower-decked offering. In the centre, a bald older man with a moustache, wearing a white dhoti and a red-and-gold brocade shawl, smiles and watches. On the right, a man with short hair wears an orange robe and a rudraksha mala, holding the tray. The scene is a ceremonial presentation on stage.
