A seated man on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a floral garland of red, yellow and white roses arched behind him. He wears a yellow turban with a gold brooch, a yellow dhoti and a yellow shawl draped over one shoulder, a gold armlet, a rudraksha-style necklace and a red bindi. His hands are folded in his lap and he smiles at the audience. Two people are partly visible in the foreground: one in a red patterned blouse at left and one in a light blue sari at right, with a brass plate of offerings nearby. Appearance-based identification is probable: the yellow turban, ornate ceremonial clothing and throne fit the Swamiji candidate, but the face is not used. The backdrop shows red floral patterns.
