A photograph taken from behind and slightly to the side of a man with long, dark, dreadlock-style hair and a bare-shouldered orange cloth. He wears a long garland of purple orchids and green leaves around his neck and turns toward a gold-coloured vessel at the lower right of the frame. Behind him, a woman in a red-and-gold sari and other people stand in a hall lit by bright overhead spotlights, with a red curtain and hanging decorations visible. The setting appears to be a ceremonial gathering.
