A stage photograph of a ceremony under a canopy decorated with yellow, white and purple flower garlands strung on pillars and overhead. A man seated on a raised platform wears a gold crown, rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and a red-orange garment, with garlands across his chest. Attendants in white dhotis and a white-and-gold shawl kneel and stand around him, one bending to tend an object wrapped in orange cloth. A woman in a dark red sari stands at right, and a silver tray sits at left on a dark stage with blue draping behind. Appearance-based label: a person for the crowned central figure, based on crown, ornate ceremonial dress and garlands.
