A smiling man with a full black beard sits on an ornate silver throne with lion-footed armrests and a leopard-print cushion, against a large repoussé silver backrest. He wears a rust-orange turban decorated with white and gold ornaments, an orange-brown robe over bare shoulders, rudraksha malas across the chest and arms, and a long garland of yellow and white flowers with green leaves. A microphone stand is in front of him, and a silver staff leans beside the throne. A small silver tray holds offering bowls. Orange and gold brocade with sequin-like studs frames the scene. Swamiji (probable) is seated centrally, with a turban, rudraksha malas and ornate silver regalia as the qualifying cues.
