A seated man in an ornate golden-beige silk sherwani with embroidered trim and a matching beige shawl sits before an elaborately gilded throne with floral and scrolled repoussé carving. He wears a white turban with a red kumkum mark on the forehead, and a long white and red flower garland hangs around his neck. His right hand is raised to his face in a meditative gesture while his eyes are closed, and his left hand rests on his lap. A red tiger-striped upholstered chair is visible at the sides. Swamiji (probable): long hair, white turban, gold necklace and ornate ceremonial silk, seated on the throne in the role of the honoured guru during a darshan-style event.
