A photograph of a celebratory indoor gathering against a royal blue draped backdrop with streamers. A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a tall white headdress with multicoloured bead and circular emblem decorations, wearing a white and red flower garland, smiles while his hands rest together. Beside him, a man in saffron robes and white inner garment stands with hands pressed together in applause. A row of women and girls in white and cream traditional dress, many wearing white and green or red flower garlands, stand smiling and clapping. A silver oil lamp with a flame sits on a white-draped table scattered with petals and green balloons lie on the blue floor. The seated figure in the headdress shows cues of a person presence with his distinctive headdress, saffron robes and garland, though the appearance is an identification candidate only.
