A felicitation ceremony on a stage backed by a banner with Kannada and English text. A seated saffron-robed religious figure, bare-footed, sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne decorated with white and orange flower garlands. Two men in white shirts and white dhotis bend forward to offer him a book wrapped in pink and purple cloth. A third white-clad man stands at right, with a man in a saffron wrap and a red-trimmed orange shawl standing behind the throne. Women in colourful saris sit at lower right, and rose petals are scattered on the platform before the throne.
