A seated man in a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a tall, intricately carved backrest and two golden lion heads at the armrests. The throne is draped with red tiger-striped cushions and a leopard-print cloth. He wears a long multi-strand gold-bead garland, gold armbands, and a white tilak on his forehead, with his hands folded in his lap. Behind him stand brass oil lamps and a golden ornamental stand, with a red curtain and a pale blue wall to the right. The scene looks like a formal satsang setting. Swamiji (probable): long hair swept back, saffron clothing, and a gold ceremonial garland mark him as a probable match for the page's subject, seated as the central teacher.
