A smiling man in a maroon kurta with gold embroidered placket and matching maroon trousers sits on a white-draped throne-like seat with red cushions under a colourful tasselled canopy. He wears a tan turban with a red bindi, has gold bangles on his wrist, and his hands are clasped in his lap. A microphone rests on the seat beside him. A second person sits partly visible behind him, and a silver staff leans at the left edge. Palm trees and white structures stand in the background. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has a turban and ornate ceremonial clothing, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji at this event.
