Outdoor ceremony under a pink and white canopy with red drapes and floral garlands. A man seated on a gold-trimmed throne wears a red turban with a jewelled ornament, orange robes, a long gold-and-bead necklace, and his long hair falls past his shoulders; his hand reaches toward a bowed head in the foreground. Beside him a man in white dhoti and shawl with a rudraksha mala stands, and behind are two people in orange robes with garlands, one a woman. Several people are visible; the foreground figure's head is partly cropped.
