A seated man in saffron and orange ceremonial dress sits on an ornate gold and red throne flanked by golden lion figures, with a tiger-striped cloth draped over the seat. He wears an orange turban, a red-and-gold sash, layered white beaded necklaces, beaded armlets and a tilak on his forehead, smiling as he rests a hand on one lion. Behind him a large framed portrait shows a smiling woman in a red turban, red garland and rudraksha beads. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has a saffron turban, ornate beaded necklaces and saffron clothing with a throne, matching the page's Swamiji reference. Pale wall, potted plant at left and an orange cloth on the floor complete the setting.
