A man seated on a red upholstered throne with white-and-gold carved arms, speaking into a microphone on a stand. He wears an ornate gold crown with a sunburst back, a red-brown dhoti-style garment with a gold necklace and pink-and-white flower garlands, gold bangles and armbands, and a vertical tilak on his forehead. His hands are raised in an animated gesture. Behind him hang deep red drapes and a gold-framed structure with silver chains. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, an ornate gold crown and rudraksha-style ceremonial jewellery, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji.
