A seated man in an orange-saffron robe with a gold-edged dhoti sits with palms pressed together in namaste on an ornate red velvet throne-like seat before a golden backdrop with a trident and a ceremonial sword. He wears a long rudraksha mala and a large gold pendant, with white vibhuti tilak on his forehead, and bare feet. Brass oil lamps with lit flames stand on either side, with red and yellow flower arrangements on red-draped platforms. To the left a young male devotee in orange robe with a shaved head and white tilak sits with hands folded in prayer. Painted temple pillars and trees form the background. Swamiji (probable) is the seated central figure, identified by his long swept-back hair, saffron robe, rudraksha mala and gold pendant.
