A seated man on a golden-framed swing-like seat smiles broadly with palms pressed together in greeting. He wears a large gold crown, a rust-orange cloth wrap, a gold-toned chest necklace with a medallion, layered gold chains, bangles and a white vertical tilak on his forehead. Pink and white flower garlands hang from his neck and drape over the silver-chained swing's posts, which are topped with silver finials. Behind him stands a painted or sculpted multi-armed deity figure with gold ornaments and red-orange dhoti, beside a yellow and red banner and a gold-tinted wall. Light flower garlands decorate the setting. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long hair concealed by a gold crown, saffron-orange ceremonial clothing, gold necklaces and rudraksha-style adornments, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji.
