A man seated on an ornate gold throne with red cushions on a stage, smiling. He wears a rust-orange turban with a crescent emblem, a rust-orange robe, long beaded necklaces with a gold pendant, gold armlets and bangles, and holds a silver staff topped with a trident. A tall silver trident stands behind him, with brass lamp stands and a carved stone pillar at left, and a microphone stands beside him. A white mug sits on a small wooden stool. Behind the stage, red drapes hang. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, a crown-like turban, saffron-orange ornate clothing, rudraksha-style beads and a ceremonial gold necklace, seated in an honoured position.
