Stage event beside a gilded throne decorated with white and multicoloured flower garlands. A long-haired figure in saffron-orange robes with an orange shawl and a white garland leans forward to hand a small blue-covered gift to a man in a dark green kurta with white dhoti, who holds a clipboard. Behind them a saffron-clad man wears an orange-and-white garland, and at right a woman in a green sari with a gold necklace stands near a man in white shirt and dhoti holding papers. Dark blue drapes and a floral arch frame the stage. The orange-robed figure is a person-type appearance based on long hair, saffron clothing and white garland, but the image is small and the identity is uncertain.
