A seated man in a golden ornate throne sits cross-legged, smiling broadly, with a bearded face and a tall black crown topped with a crescent moon. He wears a leopard-print garment, a red-brown dhoti, multiple rows of gold chains, a rudraksha mala, and a gold pendant, with bracelets on his wrists. Flanking the throne are gold-finished deity statues, one with multiple arms holding objects and one playing a veena, plus golden kalasha-like finials and a gold tray. Red satin drapes form the backdrop. The man has long swept-back hair under a crown and rudraksha beads, and his ornate dress and throne match the presentation cues associated with Swamiji (probable), in a seated sannyasi role on a peetha.
