A bearded man in a rust-brown cloth and rust-brown turban sits smiling on an ornate gold throne with a cobra-hood canopy, a rudraksha mala and gold necklace around his neck, and a large pink-and-white flower garland draped over his shoulders. A microphone stands before him on a stand. Behind him a large painted backdrop shows a multi-armed deity with a rudraksha mala and a trident-like staff at left. Carved sandstone-coloured pillars frame the stage, with a golden trident and brass lamps beside the throne. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears a turban, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold necklace, consistent with the page's description of him at this event.
