A standing man in a rust-orange and gold-bordered dhoti and shawl presses his palms together in namaste with eyes closed, wearing a red and white flower garland and a gold pendant. Behind him is an ornate golden throne with lion and bird carvings, red tiger-striped cushions, and a large jeweled heart-shaped backdrop decorated with garlands. A woman in similar orange dress sits at right beside a golden lion figure, and an attendant's hand reaches in from the right edge. A golden cage with a green bird and flowers sits on the platform. The appearance of the standing man is consistent with the page's Swamiji cues: long dark hair, saffron clothing, and a garland, so he is a probable Swamiji in person.
