A smiling man in a golden crown with a red forehead mark sits before a throne backdrop covered in bands of flowers in yellow, white, red, purple and green. He wears an orange-saffron shawl draped over his shoulders, a long garland of red beads and gold-toned ornaments, and gold bangles on his wrists. His palms are raised with fingers spread in a blessing gesture. Probable Swamiji in appearance: long swept-back hair, a crown, saffron clothing and a rudraksha-style red bead garland are visible cues of a seated guru receiving devotees. Gold ornaments and a small metal object sit at the lower left of the frame.
