A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with a carved, embossed backrest against a deep red curtain. He wears a rust-brown turban with a crescent and jewelled brooch, a rust-brown cloth wrap, a gold necklace and layered garlands of pink and white flowers. He raises his right arm in an expressive gesture while his left hand rests on the armrest, and a microphone stand is visible at the right. A white ornamental lectern stands to the left and a brass vessel is partly visible in the lower foreground. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure; the appearance cues are the turban with crescent ornament, garlanded rust-brown robes and ornate gold throne, as the central teaching figure during a discourse. One person is physically present.
