A smiling man with long dark hair and a red bindi sits on an ornate gold throne with carved floral detailing, framed by a curved arrangement of red roses, yellow marigolds and green leaves. He wears a maroon embroidered silk kurta with a gold pendant necklace and a thick white jasmine garland draped across his shoulders, with green and red specks visible on his face. Behind him hang marigold strings and a pale green curtain. A partially visible person stands at the right edge and another blurred figure is at the lower left. Swamiji (probable) is identified by long swept-back hair, a ceremonial gold necklace and a throne-seated, garlanded presentation with distinctive ornate clothing.
