A smiling man with long dark hair and a short beard sits on an ornate silver throne encrusted with red, green, blue and purple jewelled motifs, with tiger-striped cushions and carved elephant-head armrests. He wears a rust-maroon robe, a yellow and white flower garland with pink blossoms, a gold necklace with a large gold pendant, and gold armlets and bangles, with a red tilak on his forehead. A partially visible attendant in white stands at the left edge, and a strip of bunting and a gold decoration appear in the background. Probable Swamiji seated in a festival setting, with the throne and garland indicating a ceremonial honour; the long hair, gold ornaments and ceremonial robe are the distinguishing cues.
