A seated man on an ornate gilded throne under a gold canopy, with lion-head armrests and carved panels behind. He wears a maroon-red robe, a multicolour marigold garland of pink, yellow and red flowers, layered gold and beaded necklaces, bangles, and a rudraksha-style mala, with a red bindi and white markings on his forehead, and long dark hair. A gold-handled trident stands at the left of the throne and a silver ceremonial staff at the right. The setting suggests a formal ceremony. Appearance suggests a probable Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron-red ceremonial robe, ornate gold jewellery and rudraksha-style beads, seated in a throne as the honoured figure, and the page places Swamiji at this event.
