A bearded man in a maroon-red robe with a tiger-striped waist cloth sits cross-legged on a silver-backed throne in front of a row of black deity murti garlanded with yellow and red marigolds. He wears a black turban with a red and white tilak, rudraksha bracelets and a gold chain, and holds his hands folded in his lap. Silver elephant figures flank the throne, and a microphone stand is at right. Behind him, another figure in white with a gold border stands among the murtis, and a Shiva linga with a white tripundra is draped in red and orange cloth. The setting appears to be a festival stage with floral decorations. The man has long swept-back hair under the turban, a crown-like adornment, and ornate clothing, consistent with a Swamiji (probable) presentation.
