A smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair sits on a maroon velvet throne in front of an ornate gold carved backdrop. He wears an orange-saffron garment, a red bindi, a rudraksha-style bead mala and a thick garland of green-yellow citrus-like fruit around his neck. A gold necklace is visible at his throat. Pink and white flowers decorate the throne and a pink-patterned backdrop. Another person's dark head and red garment are partly visible at the lower left, bent toward him. Swamiji (probable) appears to be this seated figure, based on the distinctive saffron clothing, long hair, gold necklace and bead mala.
