A man seated on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions, speaking into a microphone with both hands raised in an expressive gesture. He wears a rust-red turban with a crescent and a small jewelled ornament, a rust-red shawl over saffron-toned robes with gold border, a heavy gold bead necklace with a large gold pendant, orange-red rudraksha bracelets, and a red tilak on his forehead. Two Himalayan water bottles sit near the throne. Behind him, gold carved pillars and a gold peacock-feather backrest frame the stage. He appears to be giving a discourse. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), based on the turban, saffron-red robes, gold malas and throne.
