A man with long swept-back dark hair sits on an ornate gilded throne with carved lion heads and a tall golden arch, in front of dark red curtains. He wears an orange-saffron shawl draped over one shoulder and bare arms with orange-beaded armlets, a red bindi on his forehead, layered rudraksha malas and a gold ceremonial necklace with a pendant. He smiles, hands folded in his lap. Probable Swamiji (probable) seated in a teaching posture on the peetha, with distinctive saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and long hair as qualifying cues. A red cushion and gold lion armrests frame the scene.
