A seated man in rust-brown ochre robes sits on a red-cushioned golden throne with carved gold lion-form armrests and a tiger-striped seat cover. He wears a long rudraksha-style pink and white flower garland, layered gold necklaces with a large central pendant, gold armbands and bangles, and a red bindi on his forehead. His long dark hair is piled high, and he smiles while gesturing with his right hand and speaking into a microphone on a stand. Behind him is a backdrop of yellow, white and red flowers and green leaves arranged in arches, with a gold draped background. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron-ochre robes, gold necklaces and garland match the appearance cues for the figure on the throne, a seated teacher speaking to an audience.
