A photograph of a seated man on an ornate golden throne with red cushions, set on a stage before a golden temple-style backdrop. He wears a rust-red turban, a rust-red robe, a gold chain with a large pendant, and gold armbands, and sits barefoot on a red mat with a microphone stand beside him. A golden trident stands to his left. Behind him, two painted or sculpted figures sit on a golden throne: one in a dark turban with gold ornaments and tiger-skin-patterned cloth, and one in a crown-like headdress with a gold necklace. A golden lion-like figure stands to the right and a golden bull sculpture sits at the lower right. The man appears to be a probable Swamiji, identified by the saffron-toned robe, turban, and gold adornments, though his identity is not certain from appearance alone. One physical person is present.
