A seated man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban with a red jewelled ornament at the front sits with palms pressed together in namaste, smiling broadly. He wears a multi-strand gold necklace, gold armlets and beaded bangles, and has a red tilak on his forehead. Behind him is a throne backed by dense garlands of yellow, orange, red, purple and white marigold flowers and green leaves, with a gold mount to one side. Swamiji (probable): the long, swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ornate gold ornaments fit the page's identification, though the figure's appearance is only partly consistent with that label; the person is shown as a physically present seated figure.
