A seated man on an ornate gold throne with carved gilded backrest and red velvet cushions smiles with palms pressed together in namaste. He wears a red-brown sannyasi-style garment, a long ceremonial gold-bead garland, a red bindi and white vibhuti marks. A cobra-hooded staff rests beside the throne. In the foreground, devotees seen from behind in brown and white clothes sit facing him, one raising an arm, as a tiered brass oil lamp with many lit wicks and a trident-topped stand is held in the foreground. Silver-embossed pillars and a floral silver backdrop frame the scene. a person: the seated man wears a gold necklace and a red-brown garment on a throne, with vibhuti and bindi marks, but the face and hair are not distinctively clear, so identity is only probable from presentation.
