A seated man sits on an ornate golden throne shaped like a cobra hood, with red velvet cushions and gold carved armrests. He wears a golden crown-like headband, a peach-coloured shawl over his shoulders, a gold necklace and multiple red and gold beaded malas, plus a yellow dhoti. Garlands of white flowers hang from the backdrop, with peacock feathers and a peacock-feather fan on the left and a red wall behind. Swamiji (probable): he has long swept-back hair, a crown and ornate gold jewellery, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji at this event, so the figure is treated as an in-person candidate with appearance cues. Also visible are kalasha-style pots and a small water bottle on the platform.
