A seated man in saffron and orange robes sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne (peetha) decorated with a large floral garland of yellow marigolds and red flowers, with golden lion heads at the armrests and a golden kalasha-like canopy above. He wears an orange-red turban, a rudraksha mala and a ceremonial gold necklace, and smiles toward the camera. A gilded lion figure stands at the right edge against a maroon velvet backdrop. An orange cloth bag sits by the throne. The figure's appearance matches the page's Swamiji reference through his saffron clothing, turban, ornate gold necklace and rudraksha mala, so this is a probable identification of Swamiji (probable), seated on the throne as a presiding figure.
