A seated figure in long, swept-back dark hair and orange saffron robes sits on an ornate gold throne with red-and-black striped cushions, gesturing with one hand while speaking. A man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands bent forward with his back to the camera, and a boy in a yellow shirt stands at the left edge. Behind the throne are gold-framed panels with carved floral and bird motifs, pink and gold curtains, and a garland of white and red flowers on the throne back. The seated figure, with long hair, saffron robes and a gold bangle, matches the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues, seated as a teacher receiving a devotee.
