A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold throne with curved, carved backrest, draped in garlands of pink and magenta flowers and layered with dense walls of marigolds and purple blooms behind him. He wears a maroon-brown cloth, a rudraksha mala, a gold pendant necklace and a long gold chain, and smiles while resting his hands on red cushioned armrests. Audience members in the foreground are partly visible at the bottom edge. A partially visible statue, also wreathed in marigolds, stands at the right. A gold-and-red curved ceremonial object appears at the left edge. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure: his appearance includes long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala, ceremonial gold necklaces and a maroon garment, with his role as the one enthroned and honoured.
