A smiling man with a short dark beard sits on an ornate silver throne decorated with lion figures and leopard-print cushions. He wears a rust-orange turban with jewelled ornaments, an orange-red robe, rudraksha malas, a gold necklace and bangles, and a large garland of yellow and white flowers with green leaves. A silver staff stands beside him and a microphone is in front of him. Behind the throne is a large silver repoussé backdrop, with orange and gold draped borders and yellow flowers framing the scene. Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne, identified by the turban, saffron robe, rudraksha malas and ceremonial jewellery, while speaking to an audience.
