A seated bearded man in rust-red saffron robes and a long white-and-orange flower garland sits on an ornate golden throne with red cushions, smiling, with a gold rudraksha-style necklace and gold bangles on his arms. A man in a maroon shirt on the right sits with palms pressed together in greeting before him. Beside the throne stand brass oil lamps and a ceremonial gold staff, with a brass bowl and green leaves on the floor. Red drapes with hanging flower decorations form the backdrop. Probable Swamiji appearance cues: long swept-back hair, saffron robes, ornate gold necklaces and a garland, seated on the throne as the honoured teacher.
