Above and around the throne hang brass lamps and bead strands under a gold canopy, with a gold kalasha-like finial. Tiger-stripe cushions line the throne. Kneeling at the threshold in the foreground are several devotees: a woman in white with red-and-gold border and a clay/ash mark on her arms holds a silver tray with offerings; an elderly man in white sits beside her; two women in white with a red shawl and a woman in red-maroon garments face the throne. Painted guardian figures in green and pink flank the doorway. Red carpet covers the floor. The seated figure has a distinctive long-haired, turbaned, saffron-clad appearance with a rudraksha-style garland, consistent with the Swamiji (probable) label, seated in darshan on the throne.2014-09-07September 03 20172017-09-03
