A bearded man with long swept-back dark hair sits smiling on a gilded throne-like chair in front of a green and blue backdrop, wearing a rust-orange robe, a multi-strand rudraksha mala and a long pink and white flower garland. Devotees in white dhotis and white shirts kneel and bow around him; one attendant holds a small blue cup and another stands with hands folded in namaskar. A gold ceremonial staff with a finial stands at left. A distinctive saffron robe, rudraksha mala and long swept-back hair on the seated figure match the appearance cues, so this is a probable Swamiji seated in person on the peetha during a ritual honour.
