A smiling man in a maroon-red turban decorated with silver ornaments, a crescent moon and a yellow feather plume sits on an ornate white-and-red throne in front of red drapes. He wears a red-brown robe, a long gold bead necklace with a large gold pendant, bangles and a jewelled belt, and holds one hand out palm-up while speaking into a microphone on a stand. Two white stone lion figures flank the throne, and a small framed portrait sits on the table at lower left. Swamiji (probable): the man wears a turban with crescent and feather, a robe in saffron tones, and ornate gold necklaces, consistent with a seated discourse.
