A photograph of a seated figure in a red-orange robe with a swept-back dark hairstyle and a red bindi, holding out a folded red-orange cloth. He sits in a large carved brown leather throne-style chair. Facing him, a woman in a cream-coloured sari with a braided bun and a rust-coloured beaded necklace leans in, and a young boy in a white shirt stands with his head bowed. On the right, an older woman with grey hair and glasses wears a white embroidered top and a red beaded necklace, her hands pressed together. Behind them, audience members sit in a large hall, including a person in an orange top. The figure wears a gold necklace and gold bangles, and the scene suggests a blessing exchange.
