A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate silver throne with carved lion-head armrests and leopard-print cushions. He wears a gold crown-like headpiece, a long gold ceremonial necklace, a red bead bracelet, and a tilak on his forehead, with palms raised toward the viewer in blessing. Behind him is a silver filigree backdrop against a purple galaxy-patterned background. Swamiji (probable): the saffron robes, gold crown and ornate gold necklace match the page's Navaratri Darbar context, and he is the only physical person visible.
