Photograph at a children's day event in a decorated hall. A man with long dark hair seated on an ornate gold-and-red throne wears a gold-embroidered tan robe and a multicoloured flower garland, and hands gifts wrapped in purple paper toward a young girl in a light blue dress who kneels before the throne. Thick white and maroon floral garlands cover the throne's base and the steps. Behind, a man in a saffron-orange robe with a maroon shawl stands beside a second man in white ritual clothing with a pendant necklace. Balloons in purple, blue, green and orange and paper decorations hang on a checked backdrop.
