A man seated on an ornate silver-white throne with carved floral detailing, set before a warm orange backdrop decorated with garlands of white and orange flowers and hanging tassels in red, green, yellow and purple. He wears a rust-orange shawl draped over a bare-chested body, a thin gold chain, a red bindi and white tripundra markings on his forehead, and a red thread on his wrist. Long dark hair falls to his shoulders and his hands rest in his lap. Gilded figures flank the scene at both sides. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron-orange shawl, gold necklace and throne setting are consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, and the figure is seated as the main presence.
