A photograph of a ceremonial honouring inside a temple-style hall with painted blue walls and pink-and-gold pillars. A man in a brown-and-gold dhoti-style garment and a long green-and-red flower garland holds up a folded red-pink cloth while smiling, standing before a gilded throne with red cushions. Facing him, a younger man in an orange turban, saffron robe with pink and gold brocade shawl and rudraksha mala holds a book with an orange cover. Other men in orange shawls and white and grey shirts stand nearby, and a shaved-headed man in white on the left is partly visible. Brass lamps and a deity murti stand on the throne side. a person is not established by visible cues in this scene; the central garland-wearing figure is described by role only.
