A man sits on an ornate silver-framed couch with red cushions, placed on an orange cloth-covered platform in front of a gold-patterned carved backdrop. He wears a rust-orange dhoti and a shawl draped over his shoulders, with a white forehead band and a long multi-coloured flower garland of pink, white, red and yellow blooms around his neck. A brass oil lamp stands behind him, and tall pillars wrapped in red, green and yellow flower garlands frame the scene. The atmosphere is ceremonial.
