A man sits on an ornate golden throne shaped like a cobra hood with a cushioned red seat and carved gold side panels, on a stage with a red backdrop, peacock feathers, white flower garlands and hanging kalasha pots. He wears a yellow dhoti, a bare upper body with a light sash, a gold necklace, and a headband with a cloth tail. A small microphone sits on a wooden side table. The setting resembles a stage discourse. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears a gold necklace and a sash over the shoulder, with long hair swept back, and his presence on the throne and stage matches the page's Swamiji claim. Peacock feather fans and a red and gold colour scheme frame him.
