A seated figure in rust-red robes and a matching red turban sits on an ornate golden throne with lion-head armrests, hands pressed together in namaste with eyes closed. A rudraksha-style beaded necklace with a long orange-gold cord hangs on the chest, and a pale bracelet is visible on one wrist. The throne is framed by a arch of marigolds and yellow flowers in orange, purple, red and white bands, with a tiger-striped cloth draped at the base. Gold-tipped trident-topped umbrellas and a golden bird finial stand at the sides against a soft grey backdrop. Swamiji (probable) appears as the seated figure, identified by the saffron-red robes, turban, long beaded necklace and throne setting, shown in person.
