A seated man in a turquoise blue dhoti-style garment and matching shawl sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne (peetha) decorated with a garland border of orange, red, white and purple flowers. He wears a turquoise head wrap and a multi-strand beaded mala with a central pendant. Behind him a red and orange banner reads Dasara and Kannada script, with a deity murti partly visible on the right draped in flower garlands. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has a turquoise turban and a rudraksha-style beaded mala, with a shawl and ceremonial throne, consistent with the page's Swamiji claim, so the appearance-based label applies.
