A smiling man in orange saffron robes sits on an ornate gilded throne with a tall golden crown-like headpiece, wearing a large white and red floral garland and a gold necklace. He holds a silver staff or sword in his right hand, and the seat is covered with pink, yellow and white petals. The backdrop is decorated with white and purple flower-patterned draping and red and yellow marigold garlands. A red tiger-striped cushion rests beside him. A candidate with long hair, saffron clothing, a crown and gold ornaments appears here, so this is a probable Swamiji depiction seated in person on the throne as the central figure.
