A man seated on an ornate golden throne shaped like a seven-hooded cobra, its hood rising behind him, with coiled golden serpent bodies forming the base. He wears a gold headband, a red-and-gold beaded necklace with a large gold pendant, gold bangles, a pale peach shawl over his shoulders and a yellow dhoti with a maroon sash. His right hand is raised in a mudra while he speaks into a microphone on a stand. Strings of white and pink flower garlands hang behind him against a red backdrop painted with peacock feathers, and a brass oil lamp hangs at upper left. Gold-carved side panels frame the stage. Swamiji (probable) based on the swept-back long hair, cobra throne, saffron-toned shawl and ornate gold necklaces, seated in the role of a speaker giving a discourse.
