A seated man in a rust-brown robe with gold trim sits on an ornate silver-and-pink patterned throne amid stage smoke. He wears a leopard-print turban with a white crescent ornament, a long gold bead necklace with a large gold pendant, red bangle bracelets and a vermilion mark on his forehead. He smiles while holding a silver cup and a silver staff. Brass ritual items with oil lamps sit in the foreground, and an attendant in maroon stands at the left edge. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure on the throne, identified only by appearance cues: crown-like turban, ornate gold necklace and ceremonial throne.
