A seated man on an ornate golden throne with a high arched back, draped in garlands of yellow marigolds. He wears a royal blue silk garment with an orange sash and orange-and-gold border, layered gold-toned beaded necklaces, a red bindi on his forehead, and gold bangles on his wrists. He smiles and raises one hand to his ear. Gilded ceremonial staffs topped with sun-face finials stand on either side, and a flower-decorated embroidered banner hangs at the right with a multicolored floral backdrop. Marigolds, pink and red flowers, and a small device rest on the dais. Probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklaces, blue and orange ceremonial silk, seated on a throne.
