A man sits on an ornate silver throne with a large arched backrest, flanked by two silver lion sculptures, on a dark stage with carved stone pillars behind him. He wears a rust-orange wrap over bare shoulders, a long red-brown rudraksha mala, a gold necklace, and has long hair swept back. Beside the throne stands a tall silver staff topped with a trident and a leopard-skin cloth draped over its shaft. Swamiji (probable): the man has long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace, rudraksha mala and saffron-orange wrap, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji at this event. Dramatic purple and red stage lighting illuminates the scene.
