A photograph of a man standing barefoot on a floor covered in scattered red, yellow and white flower petals, hands pressed together in anjali mudra at chest height. He wears a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl, a long white flower garland around his neck, and a gold necklace; his long dark hair is swept back. Behind him is an empty white-covered chair or throne piled with white and orange flower garlands, set before a large floral backdrop of white and yellow blooms with red and brown checkered patterns. Green carpet, a hanging floral festoon, a standing fan and a white-uniformed attendant on the right complete the ceremonial setting.
