A bearded man in a rust-brown turban with a jewelled ornament sits on an ornate gold-and-crimson throne with a gilded base. He wears a rust-brown robe, a pink and white flower garland, long gold beaded necklaces with a large gold pendant, and gold armbands and bangles. He holds a tall silver trident-like staff in his right hand and smiles to his left. A white mug with a printed portrait sits on a small wooden stool beside him, and a red patterned carpet covers the floor. Behind him hang maroon drapes and a gold-and-orange decorative cloth. Swamiji (probable): the turban, long hair, ornate gold necklaces and jewelled regalia match the candidate, seated in a position of honour.
