A man with long dark hair and a short beard sits on an ornate silver-and-red throne with carved silver lion armrests. He wears a rust-red shawl over a bare chest, a heavy gold necklace with a large gold pendant, a gold chain of beads, and a red tilak on his forehead. His hands rest in his lap. Seated audience members in orange and white clothing fill the foreground and background, some with white sandalwood markings on their foreheads. A silver stand with a lamp and gold drapery appear at right. The setting suggests a satsang gathering, with the man in the central seat, wearing rust-red shawl and gold necklaces, appearing to be Swamiji (probable) on the basis of his long hair, ornate gold necklaces and saffron-toned attire, though this identification is uncertain.
