A seated man on an ornate gilded throne with a red cushion, wearing an elaborate gold crown with red and green stones, a red tilak on his forehead, a pink dhoti-style garment with green border, a gold chain, and white and red marigold-and-jasmine garlands over his shoulders. A large gold rudraksha-bead mala hangs on his chest. Behind him are colourful decorated fabric panels in red, blue, orange and green, yellow marigolds and a green foliage canopy. In the foreground, a blurred hand holds a burning oil lamp flame toward him. The throne is being honoured in a ceremonial setting; the seated man appears to be a probable Swamiji (probable) based on the crown, gold ornaments and rudraksha mala, though this is an appearance-based label.
