A man seated on an ornate gold throne with carved floral and bird motifs behind him, wearing a saffron-orange turban with a blue ornament and a red bindi, long hair, a saffron-orange shawl draped over one shoulder and arm, a white and gold-bordered dhoti, and a long necklace of large gold beads. He wears gold bangles on his upper arms, and a garland of yellow and red flowers lies beside the throne. Probable Swamiji: the saffron and ornate clothing, long swept-back hair, turban, and gold bead necklace match the throne-seated figure described in the page, and he is the only person visible, seated in a formal ceremonial setting.
