A photograph on a stage at a celebration. A tall man with a red turban, red draped robe and a gold-beaded necklace stands at left, smiling, holding a white cloth-covered tray or plate forward. Before him a woman in a cream and gold silk saree with a braid decorated with flowers kneels with palms pressed together, head bowed. Behind them a golden throne is decorated with garlands of orange, yellow, white and purple flowers. Golden trident and brass lamps stand on a golden stand, with a microphone nearby. A blue and gold painted backdrop with string lights frames the scene, and a shaven-headed man in white with an orange shawl stands at right edge.
