A seated figure on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-head armrests, draped in a tiger-striped cloth and red velvet cushions. The person wears a rust-brown turban with a gold ornament, a matching rust-brown garment, a gold necklace, gold armlets and bangles, and a red bindi, and is smiling while a small microphone is at the mouth. Behind the throne is a blue wall with gold and red floral decoration and a deep red velvet curtain at left. Swamiji (probable): the figure shows long-standing cues of a turban, ornate gold jewellery and saffron-toned ceremonial clothing, seated in the position of a discourse host.
