A figure seated on a wooden throne with carved lion-head armrests, draped in white and gold-bordered cloth, wears an orange turban and orange robe with bare upper body. A long garland of white flowers and dark blue beads hangs over the chest, with red and yellow flowers at the neck. A wooden staff with an orange cloth banner rests beside the seat, and a silver vessel with a flower-decorated stone sits at the foot, surrounded by petals. Ceremonial weapons such as a sword and trident and a garland-draped lion statue flank the seat. Swamiji (probable): long hair, orange turban and robes, and a garland match the page's Guru Purnima ceremony context.
