A seated figure on an ornate gold-and-red throne with carved golden lion-head armrests, wearing a rust-red turban, rust-red and saffron dhoti-style wrap, a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace, smiling and resting one hand on a golden lion armrest. Swamiji (probable) seated on the peetha; the cues are the turban, swept-back hair, saffron-orange wrap and ceremonial gold necklace. Kneeling in front of the throne is a man in a white shirt and white dhoti with an orange shawl, holding folded papers. Standing behind the throne is a man in white dhoti with gold borders, a red garland, gold chain and orange shawl. A golden staff leans against the left side of the throne, with a red-and-gold patterned backdrop behind.
