A man with long swept-back hair, a sindoor-style forehead mark and a rust-red robe sits on an ornate gilded throne with a red velvet seat and cushion. He wears a long garland of white and purple flowers and multiple gold chains, with a large gold pendant at his chest. A shaved-headed man in white, holding a small object, sits at the lower right near the throne, while women in orange saris sit to the right and left edges. A red brick wall and a gold pole stand in the background. Because the page names Swamiji and his distinctive long hair, ornate gold chains, garland and rust-red robe are visible, this seated figure is a probable Swamiji (probable).
