A seated man in flowing saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne upheld by carved lion figures, with a red-and-black tiger-striped cushioned seat. His long, swept-back dark hair falls past his shoulders, and he wears a heavy gold chain necklace and a red tilak on his forehead. His hands are pressed together in anjali mudra with eyes closed in prayer. White jasmine garlands and orange marigold garlands drape the throne and the platform, with a red-and-yellow floral garland above. A cushioned gold footstool sits below. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, saffron clothing, gold chain and throne presentation are the qualifying cues for the person seated on the throne, shown here as a photograph.
