Outdoor festival scene under a canopy strung with orange, yellow and red bunting and fabric drapes. A seated figure in saffron-orange robes, a white turban, long hair, a red bindi and layered garlands of marigold and white flowers places a medal ribbon around the neck of a young man in a white martial-arts uniform with a black belt and an Indian flag patch. A second man in white stands beside him, and a third person in dark clothing sits at the lower right. Behind them, many seated people in white and orange clothing watch, and a red-and-white canopy is visible above. The seated figure has distinctive long hair, a turban, saffron robes and a garland, consistent with a person appearance, but this is an unconfirmed appearance-based label; the page does not identify him here.
