A man sits smiling on an ornate silver swing with red velvet cushions and a carved gold backdrop inside a decorated hall. He wears a red-brown ochre dhoti and a matching shawl draped over his shoulder, a white forehead mark, and a long garland of red, pink, white and yellow flowers around his neck. A red cloth covers the floor below, and red and white floral garlands hang from the swing's chains. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, ochre saffron clothing and an ornate garland, placed as the seated central figure. Behind him a brass oil lamp stands near the swing.
