A man with long, swept-back dark hair sits cross-legged on an ornate gilded throne with a red velvet back, draped in a flower-garlanded canopy of white jasmine and marigolds. He wears a saffron-orange shawl over an orange garment, speaking into a microphone on a stand. A brass oil lamp stands at right, a potted palm sits in the foreground, and white cushions and garland-draped stage props surround the dais against navy drapes. Probable Swamiji (appearance cues: long swept-back hair, orange garments, ceremonial throne and garlands) seated and addressing an audience.
