A smiling man with long dark hair and a short beard sits on an ornate white-and-red throne in front of a deep red curtain. He wears an orange-red ochre robe draped over his shoulders and a white forehead marking with a red dot, and holds a golden staff with a trident-like finial. A silver stand with a decorative top is at right. Seated devotees in red and white clothes fill the foreground and background, and a woman with dark hair sits in the lower foreground. The image is a Navaratri darbar scene with the presiding figure appearing as Swamiji (probable), based on the long hair, saffron-ochre robe, gold necklace and ceremonial staff seated on the throne.
