A man in a seated position on a gilded throne with carved lion-head arms raises his right hand, adorned with a gold ring and beaded bracelets. He wears a deep red-brown turban, a red-brown and gold-bordered shawl across his torso, a long rudraksha-style mala and a large gold ceremonial pendant at the chest. Behind him, a man in white dhoti and shawl with gold borders and a gold necklace stands in the dark background, with another attendant in white beside him. The setting is a dimly lit stage or hall. The person on the throne is the Swamiji (probable) based on the turban, saffron-red attire, ornate gold pendant and mala, and the page's reference to him at this event.
