A seated man in a red silk ensemble with gold embroidery sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne against a deep purple curtain. He wears a large garland of red roses and yellow marigolds, a red bindi, and has long dark hair. A young man in a white shirt and orange shawl stands before him with palms pressed together in namaskar, appearing to offer respect. Red roses lie near the throne base. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair and ornate red-gold clothing, with the throne and garland marking him as the honoured person; the seated man is the candidate.
