A seated figure in saffron and red robes, wearing a red and gold turban and many layered red and white flower garlands, smiles broadly on a decorated golden throne. A man in a white shirt with a rudraksha mala and sandalwood tilak leans forward to touch the seated figure's hand, while a woman with folded hands in the lower left watches. Behind them a floral backdrop of red, yellow, purple and orange blooms surrounds the throne, and a silver trident stands in the foreground. A probable Swamiji candidate sits on the throne, identified by the turban, saffron-red robe and garlands; a man in white clothing offers respect at his side. Other attendants in saffron and white stand in the background under a white canopy.
