A man sits cross-legged on a golden swing seat draped with a striped tiger-print cloth, suspended by chains wrapped in red, pink and yellow flower garlands. He wears a golden crown, a rust-orange robe, a gold necklace, layered gold and flower garlands, and gold armlets, with a red tilak on his forehead. A golden oil lamp stands at left and a painted multi-armed deity figure appears in the background against a glowing orange wall. Probable Swamiji: the crown, saffron-orange robe and ornate gold adornments match the qualifying cues, seated in a ceremonial setting, appearing to be a central honoured figure on the swing.
