A large cutout photograph standing on an ornate, rhinestone-trimmed throne with peacock-shaped fan decorations behind it. The printed figure wears a red turban with a tilak, a red robe, multi-strand gold and jewelled necklaces, and rudraksha beads, while holding a trident in one hand and the other palm open. A book sits before the cutout on a stand. In front, a brass tray holds flowers, rose petals, green leaves and two silver containers, as an offering. A carved wooden elephant stands at the left. No physical people are visible. The figure is a printed depiction, and the page identifies it as Swamiji, though the appearance cues (red turban, robe, rudraksha and jewelled necklaces) are suggestive but not conclusive.
