A photograph of a ceremonial reception on a red carpet. A man with long dark hair, wearing an orange sleeveless robe, sits on an ornate gilded throne with a red cushion, smiling and holding his palms together while a flower garland hangs from his arm. In front of him, a man in a white shirt stands with palms pressed together in greeting, and a woman in a lavender-pink shawl stands barefoot beside him. Behind them, a woman in an orange top and white sari with gold border stands near a backdrop of marigold and white daisy garlands. The seated man has long hair and an orange robe, but the page offers no confirmed identity, so no identification is made here.
