A seated man smiles on an ornate golden throne decorated with lion figures and a floral arch of red, yellow, purple and green marigolds and white jasmine. He wears an ornate gold crown, a red and gold brocade sherwani, a cream dhoti, a long gold necklace and a rudraksha mala. He holds a silver staff topped with a bird and wears rings. Behind the throne hang white and orange draped cloth and a golden back panel. A floral garland rests on the footstool. Appearance-based probable Swamiji cues include the crown, rudraksha mala, ceremonial gold necklace and ornate ceremonial clothing. The throne and being honoured alone are insufficient, so the identity is only probable from appearance.
