A seated man in an ornate golden throne with a gold lion figure on each side and a tiger-skin cloth draped over the seat. He wears a rust-orange wrap over his shoulders and an orange lower garment, a long gold bead necklace, gold armlets and bangles, and a red vertical mark on his forehead. He sits cross-legged with hands resting on his knees, and a silver serpent-topped staff stands beside him. Brass bells and oil lamps hang from the golden backdrop. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair framed by a gold crown-like headpiece, rust-orange clothing and layered gold necklaces, seated on a throne as the central figure.
