A man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with a tall gilded back, draped in long garlands of red, yellow, white and purple flowers with a green leaf garland around the seat. He wears a gold crown-like headpiece, a red bindi and a beaded necklace, smiling with hands resting on his knees. A gold umbrella canopy and orange flags stand behind, and pink and orange flowers are arranged at the base of the dais. Printed overlay text at upper right reads 31st Chaturmasya, 33 years of age, July 15, 2011. The man has distinctive saffron robes, a crown and garlands, so he is described as Swamiji (probable) seated on the throne.
