A smiling figure in a rust-red turban with a gold emblem and a rust-red and gold-bordered robe stands before an ornate gold throne carved with scrollwork and two gold lion figures, with a dark red velvet curtain behind. A long rudraksha-style mala with gold beads hangs on the chest, and the figure's palms are raised together in a greeting gesture. Leopard-print cushions and red velvet cloth cover the dais. Probable Swamiji by appearance: rust-red and saffron-toned ceremonial clothing, turban and multi-strand bead mala, seated on a throne in front of a red curtain.
