A smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair sits on a gilded throne wearing a saffron-orange robe draped over his shoulders and a long gold bead mala with ornate gold pendants. He holds a small object in one hand and rests the other on his knee. Behind him stand a golden kalasha-style vessel and a garlanded deity murti draped in yellow and red flower garlands. A devotee in a brown garment bows at his feet, and a man in white with a garland stands to the right. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, saffron robe and gold mala match the page's identification, and he is seated on a throne receiving pada puja.
