A seated figure with palms pressed together in namaskar and eyes closed sits on an ornate gold throne decorated with layered red, orange, purple, white and yellow flower garlands arranged in arcs behind and beneath him. He wears a gold crown with a peacock-feather ornament, a long red floral garland, a gold necklace, white dhoti-style garments with gold borders and red cushions on the throne. In the foreground at left, a man in orange robes and gold neck ornaments leans forward, tending to offerings; silver vessels and a small flame are on the platform in front. This appears to be a birthday celebration puja with flower decoration. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears a gold crown, long red garland and gold necklace on a flower-adorned throne.
