Ceremonial scene in a temple-like hall with gold and maroon drapes. A man seated on an ornate gold-and-red throne wears a maroon robe, a maroon turban with a gold crest and crescent ornament, and layered garlands of white-pink flowers and yellow beads. Two men in white dhotis with gold borders and saffron-orange shawls kneel or bend before him, one pouring or offering something. A shaved-headed man in white stands at right, and a bare-chested attendant with a rudraksha mala and tilak stands at left. Swamiji (probable): the seated central figure wears a maroon turban with a gold crest, maroon robe, and ceremonial garlands, consistent with the page's reference.
