A seated man in a rust-red turban with a gold crest, a rust-red robe with gold border and a gold-beaded rudraksha-style necklace with a large gold pendant sits cross-legged on an ornate silver-and-red throne with lion-head armrests. He smiles, hands folded in his lap, barefoot on a red cushion. A microphone stand is at right and a silver cobra-head staff stands at left. Behind him is an elaborate gold-leaf scrollwork backdrop. A small framed portrait sits on a silver side table at left. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears a turban, saffron-rust robes and ceremonial gold necklaces on a throne, and the page names Swamiji at this event.
