A man stands beside a carved wooden throne in front of a draped cream curtain and a dark metal Nataraja-style halo panel with ornate scrollwork. He wears an orange-red garment with a yellow border draped over his shoulder, a large orange-beaded necklace with white flower garlands, a rudraksha mala, a gold arm band, and a tall dark crown. He holds a silver trident with a red tilak on his forehead. Floral metal peacock-and-lotus pedestals stand on either side, and a blue ceramic urn sits at his feet. Swamiji (probable) appears to be the in-person figure, based on the trident, crown, rudraksha mala and ornate red clothing, though his appearance is not conclusive.
