A seated figure in a large brown leather throne chair with carved wooden armrests is the central subject, wearing orange and saffron robes, a leopard-print garment, a thick rudraksha mala, a gold pendant necklace and gold bangles, with a dark voluminous hairstyle and a red-and-yellow forehead mark. A tall silver trident stands at left and a microphone on a stand is in front of him. A large audience of mostly white-clad and orange-clad devotees, some wearing lanyards, fills the foreground and background, with a bald priest in orange garments seated at the lower centre. Behind them hang a decorated ceremonial banner and framed artwork on a warm yellow hall wall. Probable Swamiji (probable) seated on the throne, with appearance cues of swept-back dark hair, saffron robes and ornate gold necklaces.
