A seated man smiles on a throne-like gold chair framed by garlands of yellow, red, purple and white flowers. He wears an ornate gold crown with red and green stone inlay, a red-maroon brocade kurta with gold floral pattern, and a white shawl draped diagonally across his chest. He wears multiple long gold necklaces, a gold pendant, and several rings, and holds a silver staff topped with a bird figure. A red bindi marks his forehead, and his long dark hair falls past his shoulders. Behind him is a gold-embossed backdrop. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, ornate crown, ceremonial gold necklaces and rich brocade clothing with a shawl, seated on a throne as honoured guest.
