A bearded man in a rust-orange robe and matching orange turban with a round white emblem sits on an ornate gold throne with lion-head armrests and a plum velvet cushion, under a colourful tasselled canopy at night. He wears layered orange and gold beaded necklaces, gold armlets and bangles, and holds a large gold trident-topped staff with a smoking gold incense urn. Seated devotees in saris and other clothing watch and some press their palms together. Swamiji (probable): the orange robe, orange turban, gold ornaments and throne match the presentation cues the page associates with him, and he is physically present in the scene.
