A man sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with carved gilded backrest and red velvet cushions, raising both palms outward in a teaching gesture. He wears a white dhoti with gold border, a rudraksha mala with a blue-stone pendant, a gold chain, bangles and a red bindi, and has long dark hair. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala, ceremonial gold necklace and white-and-gold dhoti seated on a throne, consistent with the page's attribution to the event. Speaking to a seated gathering, the figure is the only physical person visible.
