A man seated on an ornate gilded throne with golden lion-head armrests and a tiger-striped cloth draped over the seat, with hanging brass bells and oil lamps above him. He wears a rust-orange garment with a gold border, a red and white flower garland, layered gold necklaces, bangles and a ring, and has a white forehead marking. He is smiling and looking to the side. Trays of oil lamps decorated with red flowers sit in front of the throne, and a person in white is partly visible at the right edge. Overall this is a photographic image of a throne seating in an ashram setting. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, a saffron-orange garment, ornate gold necklaces and a red garland, matching the page's claim of his presence.
