A man in white shirt and saffron-orange shawl speaks into a microphone at a wooden podium on an outdoor stage, one hand raised mid-gesture while addressing an audience. Behind him is a large ornate golden circular backdrop with floral relief, and brass oil lamps with red and white flower garlands decorate the upper stage. A second man in white, holding papers, sits at the right edge. Faces and identity are not established from appearance, so the speaker is described by role only.
