A seated man on an ornate gilded throne with a tall black turban-style headwrap, a red bindi and white forehead markings, smiling with one hand raised in a mudra. He wears a long rudraksha mala, a heavy gold chain with a pendant, a leopard-print shawl over the chest, and a rust-coloured dhoti with legs in lotus posture. Gold-toned deity statues flank the throne, including a figure playing a veena on the right and a standing figure with a staff on the left; a brass offering plate rests nearby against a gold draped curtain. Swamiji (probable) is the person seated centrally on the throne, identified by the rudraksha mala, gold chain and turban cues.
