A seated man in saffron-orange silk robes with a maroon and gold border sits cross-legged on an ornate gilded throne carved with lion figures and floral motifs. He has long, swept-back dark hair, a red bindi, a heavy gold multi-strand necklace with a pendant, and gold armbands. He smiles broadly with both arms spread wide. Pink flowers and white bead strings decorate the throne backdrop, and a maroon fan-shaped object sits at lower right. The visible long hair, orange robes, gold ornaments and throne match the appearance-based cues for the Swamiji (probable) candidate, presented as a seated teacher giving discourse.
