A smiling man in a rust-brown and gold-bordered silk wrap and maroon turban with a jewelled ornament sits cross-legged on an ornate gilded throne with a red velvet and tiger-striped cushion. He wears a rudraksha-style beaded necklace over bare shoulders and a red bindi, with his hands clasped over his knee. The gold repoussé throne backrest is behind him, and a dark red curtain fills the right side. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), seated in person, given the throne, maroon turban, ornate clothing and beaded necklace.
