A man seated on an ornately carved, cushioned throne-style chair in front of a dark green garden backdrop. He wears a leopard-print turban topped with a white crescent ornament, a red tilak on his forehead, and an orange-red saffron-toned robe draped over his shoulders. A heavy multi-strand gold bead necklace with a large gold pendant hangs on his chest, and red beaded bands are on his upper arms and wrists. His hands rest in his lap, and a silver figure of a bull stands at the right edge beside a brass lamp. Given the page's note that Swamiji was present and the appearance cues of the leopard turban, crescent, saffron robe and gold necklaces, this is a Swamiji (probable) seated at the event.
