A smiling man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne-like seat decorated with a dense arch of marigold garlands in yellow, red and white, with green leaves. He wears a gold crown with a central motif, a red tilak on his forehead, and a gold necklace over a white-and-red floral garland draped across his chest, hands clasped in front. Behind him, a bald man in white dhoti with gold border stands at right, and red and gold fabric canopy with hanging lamps frames the top. The scene appears to be a ceremonial reception with flower decoration. The seated man is a probable Swamiji by appearance cues: saffron clothing, gold crown and ornate gold necklace, with a seated garland-decorated throne.
