A seated figure on a golden throne wears a red-orange turban, ornate beaded necklaces, and a saffron-and-gold wrap, extending bare hands forward to receive offerings. Before them a man in a grey-blue collared shirt kneels and holds out fruit in cupped palms. Behind, a shaved-headed attendant in a red-orange robe with a vertical tilak and rudraksha mala sits beside a gold-framed throne, with standing attendants in red and gold clothing and a brass lamp beside them. This is a devotional darshan with fruit offering. The seated figure matches the appearance cues of Swamiji (probable): red turban, ornate gold and beaded adornment, saffron wrap, being honoured on a throne.
