A bearded man with long swept-back dark hair and white forehead markings sits on an ornate silver throne with a red velvet back, smiling and holding a black microphone in his right hand. He wears a saffron-orange shawl over an orange robe with a gold-edged border. Another orange-draped figure is not visible; behind him are hanging orange and multicoloured tassels, and seated audience members in the lower foreground and right. A dark twisted braid rests on the throne arm. The setting appears to be an indoor hall during a discourse session. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, orange ornate robes and throne are consistent with the page's identification, but the face-based identity is unverified.
