A seated man in an orange-saffron garment with a gold-bordered shawl sits on an ornate red and gold throne. He wears a long gold and black bead necklace with a large gold pendant, a white vertical tilak with a red dot on his forehead, and has his hair swept back into a knot. His hands rest in his lap and he looks to the side. A lit golden oil lamp stands behind him against a dark curtain. Swamiji (probable): the orange robe, gold rudraksha-style mala and swept-back hair match the candidate, though appearance alone is uncertain.
