A seated man in a maroon-red turban with a gold and jewelled ornament and a small crescent-like emblem, wearing a maroon-red dhoti-style wrap with gold border, a heavy multi-strand gold bead mala and a large gold pendant at the chest, sits on an ornate silver throne with lion-figure armrests and a red cushion. A silver staff with a serpent-shaped top stands beside him. He is smiling and speaking into a microphone, and a gold ornate scrollwork backdrop fills the scene. Only one physical person is visible. Swamiji (probable): the cues are the saffron-maroon ornate clothing, gold mala and pendant, and a turban, though the appearance is consistent with the page only in part.
