A photograph in a white colonnaded hall with arched openings onto a sunlit courtyard. In the centre, a person in a rust-red and gold-bordered dhoti with a gold armlet is garlanded with a long white and red flower garland and a marigold-orange garland on the column behind. Facing them, a bearded man in a white shirt and red shawl stands with palms pressed together in namaste. Around them, people in saffron and orange robes, a man in a beige shirt, and a woman with flowers in her hair stand close, with a shaved-headed monk in orange at right. Some people in the background are blurred by motion. The scene suggests a welcome greeting, though no name is legible.
