A smiling man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold-and-velvet throne flanked by gilded lion sculptures. He wears a red and yellow flower garland, multiple beaded necklaces, and a red bindi-style mark on his forehead, and holds a silver ceremonial staff in one hand while extending the other arm outward. Behind him, a painted deity figure holding a staff and a multi-armed figure stands against a colourful blue, green and pink backdrop, with a brass oil lamp at the right edge. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and a ceremonial staff on a throne.
