A seated man sits on an ornate gold repoussé throne with a tall arched back, smiling and gazing to his left. He wears a rust-red dhoti and a leopard-print shawl over his shoulder and torso, with a long multi-strand rudraksha mala of beads and a gold chain at his neck. He holds a long staff topped with a yellow-green ball in his left hand, and his right hand rests on his knee beside a silver-tipped object. A red-and-gold patterned cloth covers the dais, with a red-and-gold floor edge below. Because the page names Swamiji and he has long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and ornate clothing, he is a probable Swamiji (probable) seated in person on the throne.
