A smiling man with long dark swept-back hair, a white tilak with a red bindi on his forehead, and orange clothing under a leopard-print shawl, waves his right hand while seated on a red and orange cushioned platform. Behind him stand a gilded pole wrapped in purple and white flower garlands and tall gold-topped fringed tassels in green, magenta, blue and yellow. The background is a pale sky with a partly visible orange and blue decorative panel. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, orange clothing and ceremonial procession setting match the page; the figure is the seated central subject being honoured.
