A seated man with long dark hair and a beard sits with eyes closed on an ornate white-and-red throne with a red cushioned seat. He wears a rust-red saffron-toned cloth draped over his bare shoulders, a long necklace of gold beads and a large gold pendant, and a vermilion tilak on his forehead; his hands rest in his lap. In front of him, a dense crowd of devotees in orange and red garments and white forehead markings sits closely, including women with flowers in their hair. A silver side table holds a small ritual item, and a silver lion figure stands near the dais. Behind them, red drapes and a golden backdrop frame the hall. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears long swept-back hair, a gold necklace with pendant, and saffron-red clothing, seated on a throne.
