A smiling man in saffron-orange robes stands at the centre of a crowd, wearing a cream-coloured turban with a gold ornamental band and a red bindi, a white and red flower garland, and a heavy gold necklace of beads and a pendant. Long dark hair falls past his shoulders. Around him, saffron-clad young men and women in orange and red saris and shawls, one with a rudraksha-style mala, stand close, and a young girl in blue with a vibhuti mark sits at right. Coconut palms and thatched huts form the outdoor background. A person's arm reaches in from the left edge.
