Two seated men on gilded thrones in front of a blue door painted with peacocks and floral motifs, with autumn-leaf decorations at the edges. The man on the left, smiling and gesturing with his right hand, wears an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, heavy gold necklaces, gold earrings, a red bindi and a bangle. He has long swept-back dark hair and a small microphone. Swamiji (probable) appears on the left, with long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklaces and saffron clothing. Beside him sits an elderly man with a shaved head, white and red tilak lines and a red-and-gold head cloth, wearing a flower garland of white jasmine with green leaves and red blooms, rudraksha beads, a gold pendant and orange robes, with his hands resting on his lap. A brass oil lamp stands at the right edge of the frame.
