A man with long dark hair sits with eyes closed before a red upholstered throne with an ornate silver frame. He wears a rust-red wrap over his bare chest with a gold chain and a thick gold necklace, and holds a silver staff topped by a serpent-entwined shape. Above him a silver trident rises from the scene. Behind him, seated devotees in white and saffron-toned clothing sit with heads bowed, one with hands raised to the head, in an interior with pale walls. Appearance-based cues including the long hair, gold necklaces and rust-red wrap match the page's Swamiji label, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) seated in person, shown with a ceremonial staff and throne.
