A man with long dark hair and a beard sits on an ornate silver throne with lion-like armrests and a large carved backrest, bare-footed, wearing a sleeveless burnt-orange top, orange trousers, a thin gold chain and an orange bead bracelet. He holds a small white ritual implement in one hand. Behind the stage, a large backdrop shows a South Indian temple gopuram and pillared corridors at dusk. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long hair, saffron-orange clothing and a gold neck chain, and the page names Swamiji, so the appearance-based label applies. No other people are visible.
