A smiling man with long, dark, swept-back hair sits on a gold-embossed throne decorated with arched garlands of red, yellow, purple and white flowers. He wears a white dhoti and shawl with gold borders, a heavy multi-bead gold necklace with a gold pendant, a gold bangle, and a red dot with white vibhuti on his forehead. He holds a dark staff with a gold handle and his eyes are closed in joy. The setting appears to be a festival or procession seat. Swamiji (probable) is seated at the centre, identified by long swept-back hair, gold ceremonial necklaces and ornate white-and-gold clothing.
