A man seated on an ornate silver-and-red throne holds a length of pink thread stretched between his hands, while another person's hand at the left edge extends a folded white paper. He wears a rust-red draped garment, a long necklace of gold-toned beads, a large gold pendant and a gold chain, rudraksha bracelets on both wrists and upper arm, and a vertical tilak on his forehead. His long dark hair falls past his shoulders and he has a moustache and beard. Gold-toned ritual objects and a blurred yellow background are visible behind him. The scene appears to be a thread-blessing or ritual exchange given from a throne. Swamiji (probable) cues: long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklaces, rudraksha malas and saffron-red ceremonial clothing, seated on a throne.
