A seated man on an ornate gold throne with a red velvet back is smiling with eyes closed. He has long, swept-back dark hair, a red dot on his forehead, and wears a red silk kurta with gold embroidered trim, a gold-brown shawl draped over one shoulder, and red silk dhoti-style lower garments. His right hand rests on a gold throne armrest. In front, a man in a white kurta kneels with palms pressed together in a namaskar gesture. Red rose petals and yellow marigold garlands cover the floor at the base of the throne. The man on the throne shows distinctive long hair and ceremonial red-and-gold dress, so he is a probable Swamiji candidate present in person.
