A photograph on a red stage under a canopy of flower garlands in pink, blue, green and orange. A smiling man in saffron robes and an orange turban, with a white and red flower garland, places his hand on the shoulder of an older man in white dhoti and shirt who bows his head and receives a gold-and-maroon shawl. Beside them stands a brass oil lamp with a peacock-shaped top and a floral arrangement. A Tamil banner sits behind them. The saffron-robed figure's identity is not established by visible cues beyond clothing and turban, so he is described by role only.
