Photograph of a ceremony on an ornate gold throne with carved dark wooden panels behind. A seated man with a white forehead band and red tilak wears a rust-red robe with a leopard-print shawl, a pink and white flower garland, and a gold chain with rudraksha beads. In front of him stands a bare-chested man with long black hair braided with pink strands, wearing rudraksha malas and white markings on his body. A third figure in orange clothing stands at the right edge.
