A seated man on an ornate gold throne with a carved lion-head backrest and gold lion armrest, framed by a garland-draped arch of marigolds, red roses, purple and white flowers and green leaves, with white and orange draped fabric behind. He wears an ornate gold crown, a red and gold brocade sherwani, a white dhoti and a shawl, and a heavy gold necklace and garland. He holds a silver staff topped with a bird and raises one hand in greeting. Swamiji (probable) cues: crown, ornate gold ceremonial clothing and gold necklaces. A small blue logo appears at upper left.
