A smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair and a vermilion tilak on his forehead sits in the foreground, wearing a leopard-print shawl over orange saffron clothing and a long gold beaded necklace. Behind him, a red cushioned throne with gold trim is partly visible, and two attendants in white dhotis with red sashes stand holding tall staffs. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, gold ceremonial necklace and shawl are the cues for the seated man, who is presented as the central figure in this stage setting.
