A seated man on an ornate gold throne with a deep red velvet cushion and tiger-striped upholstered armrest. He wears a cream sleeveless kurta with thin gold stripes, an orange silk shawl wrapped at his waist and draped over one shoulder with tasselled ends, and multiple rudraksha malas with a gold pendant. Beaded bracelets sit on his upper arms and wrists. He holds a white whisk-like ceremonial fan in one hand, a red bindi on his forehead and sandalwood-style marks, his long dark hair swept back. Behind him stand a gold and red backdrop with a silver staff. The throne suggests a stage or formal seating. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), seated in the throne position in cream and orange ceremonial attire with rudraksha malas and long swept-back hair.
