A smiling man seated on a red velvet throne in front of an ornate gold carved backdrop. He wears a red turban with gold trim, a red bare-shouldered robe draped over one shoulder, a red mala, a layered crystal-and-white-stone necklace, jeweled armbands, and a red tilak on his forehead, with a small earpiece visible. Appearance-based candidate: Swamiji (probable), with long swept-back hair not visible here; the cues are the red turban, ornate ceremonial jewelry and draped red robes, seated in a position of honour. He is the single physical person in the scene.
