A man seated on a brown leather throne with gold lion-head armrests smiles while holding a small golden trident-shaped ritual object in his right hand. He wears long dreadlocked hair wound into a turban with a silver crescent ornament, white and red tilak on his forehead, a red vest-like garment, layered gold-and-white beaded garlands with gold pendants, golden bangles and an armlet, and a leopard-print lower cloth. Blurred golden drapery and seated devotees in white fill the background. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair with a crescent crown, saffron clothing and ornate gold and rudraksha-style garlands, seated on a throne in a darshan setting.
