A man in a grey-and-red striped polo shirt and khaki trousers stands at left, handing a wrapped gift box with pink and silver paper to a smiling man seated on a golden throne at right. The seated man wears an orange-red turban, a saffron-orange garment, a rudraksha-style beaded and gold necklace, and a long garland of white, orange, purple and red flowers. Behind them, a golden deity murti with ornate gold jewellery and a dark face is visible, and a bald man in saffron robes sits at lower left with others in white clothing. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure in the orange turban and saffron clothing with gold ornaments and garland is a presumed candidate, the page indicates his presence at this event, and the appearance cues are distinctive; he is receiving a gift.
