A seated man in a maroon-red turban with a small gold emblem and crescent ornament, wearing a maroon-red shawl over bare shoulders and long pink-and-white flower garlands. He sits on a leopard-print cushioned throne with gold lion-head armrests and an ornate gold backdrest, smiling and gesturing with his right hand toward a microphone on a stand. A white serpent-shaped staff rests at left, with a small framed photograph on a silver stand beside it. Swamiji (probable) appearance cues: maroon-red turban and shawl, ceremonial garlands and gold-throne setting, presented in a seated discourse role.
