A man seated on an ornate silver throne encrusted with jewel-coloured stones in red, green, blue and purple, with tiger-striped cushions and silver elephant-head armrests. He wears a maroon-brown robe, layered gold necklaces with a large gold pendant, gold armbands, and long garlands of pink and white flowers. He holds a curved golden-handled ceremonial sword or sickle in one hand and a white flower garland in the other, with a white horizontal tilak and a red bindi on his forehead. Another person in white stands at the left edge. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklaces, rudraksha-style adornment and ceremonial regalia match the page's identification, but the image itself does not confirm it.
