A smiling man with long dark hair and a red bindi on his forehead stands in front of a gold-plated throne framed by a garland arch of yellow marigolds, purple flowers, white blossoms and red roses. He wears an orange-saffron robe with a gold-edged shawl and a heavy ceremonial necklace of gold rudraksha-style beads. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ornate gold necklace are visible cues, and he is presented as the honoured figure in a festival setting.
