A seated man with long swept-back dark hair, a red tilak on his forehead, gold earrings and an orange-saffron robe smiles while wearing a white and red flower garland and heavy gold ornaments with a rudraksha mala. He sits on a gold throne backed by a golden ornate arch, surrounded by a bed of white jasmine and rose petals. A bald attendant in white and orange holds up an ornate gold-and-jewelled kalasha vessel while another hand offers him a ring-adorned gesture. The setting appears to be a ceremonial reception or padapuja-style honouring. Swamiji (probable) cues: long swept-back hair, saffron robe, ornate gold ornaments and rudraksha mala, seated on a throne.
