A photograph of a ceremonial stage set with a large ornate golden throne decorated with lion-head armrests and carved gold panels, backed by an arch of red, orange, pink and white flowers. A man in orange robes with a red shawl sits on the throne, smiling, with a red footstool before him. To the left, another man in orange robes leans forward, while a man in white kurta and white dhoti bends in front of the seated figure, extending his hands toward him. On the right, a woman in a white sari with a yellow shawl stands with folded hands. Fruit and offerings sit on a pink-draped table at right.
