A seated man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban sits on a gold-trimmed throne decorated with thick garlands of yellow marigolds, red and purple flowers and green leaves, under a gold ornate canopy. He wears a long multi-strand gold-toned necklace of beads and gold bangles, and his right hand is raised in a gesture while he smiles. Behind him are white and brown tiled walls with white flower arrangements and a golden finial; a framed emblem hangs on each side wall. Swamiji (probable) is identified by the saffron robes, orange turban, long hair and gold-and-bead necklace on the throne, consistent with a Tiruvannamalai celebration setting.
