A smiling man in saffron-orange robes stands on a red-carpeted stage beneath a striped, ribbon-decorated canopy with a large red and blue om-like emblem, raising one hand in greeting. He wears a long red and white flower garland, a green-and-yellow lemon-bead garland, a gold necklace, gold armlets and bangles, and a small red tilak. Beside him a seated attendant in white dhoti with a gold border and a gold chain, and another man in orange with a rudraksha-style necklace, hold golden trident staffs and an orange flag. A zebra-striped throne stands behind, framed by marigold and flower decorations. This appears to be a devotee-filled festival gathering with a probable Swamiji (probable) figure, identified by his saffron robes, long swept-back hair, ceremonial gold necklace and bangles, centred and being greeted on the stage.
