Night outdoor celebration with string lights and red flags. A figure in saffron-orange robes with long dark hair sits on an ornate gold throne at left, hands raised in a gesture, a gold-handled ceremonial vessel beside him; the throne bears a gold lotus-style armrest. Beside him on a second gold chair sits an older bearded man in white clothing with a garland and a white cap. A standing man in brown-maroon robes with a garland faces the thrones, and several women in maroon and gold saris stand with palms pressed together in front, some wearing garlands. Smoke rises from an incense or lamp stand near the throne. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure in orange robes with long swept-back hair, seated on a throne with ceremonial gold fittings.
