A smiling man seated on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions, wearing a rust-orange turban decorated with gold embroidery and a small jewel brooch, a red kumkum dot on his forehead, gold drop earrings, layered gold and beaded necklaces, a green stone pendant, and a rust-orange embroidered silk garment with a draped shawl. He holds a silver ceremonial staff with a bird-shaped finial in his right hand. Behind him, blurred attendants in saffron and white stand in a hall, with a video camera on a tripod at left. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears a turban, ornate gold-embroidered orange silk, layered gold necklaces and a ceremonial staff on a gold throne.
