A man seated on an ornate gold throne with a red cushioned seat, draped in a floral garland of yellow marigolds, red and pink flowers, and green leaves. He wears a light beige turban with a red bindi, a white dhoti and shawl, a heavy multi-strand gold necklace with a gold pendant, and a gold armlet on his upper arm. His hands are folded in his lap and he smiles toward the camera. Behind him is an orange backdrop with large red lettering reading Dasara and partial text about celebrating the Mother. A gold-carved side panel is visible at each edge. The man has long dark hair swept back, a crown-less turban, saffron-free white ritual clothing and an ornamented gold chain, consistent with the page's Swamiji reference, though the appearance is only partly distinctive.
