A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a long gold beaded necklace smiles broadly while placing his right hand on the bald head of a man in white clothes who bows forward. A woman with long dark hair in a pink top sits to the right. Behind them is a golden throne and ornate carved gold backdrop, with trishula staffs, red and yellow flower garlands and a red banner with partial lettering. A visible red bindi marks the seated man's forehead. Swamiji (probable): the seated man in orange with long swept-back hair and a gold bead necklace, seated on the throne, fits the candidate cues; the bowing man is a devotee receiving blessing.
