A seated man on a gilded golden throne with orange cushions smiles and raises one hand in greeting. He wears an orange dhoti and shawl, a rudraksha mala with a white flower garland, multiple gold chains, bangles and an armband, and has a red tilak on his forehead. A tall silver trident stands beside the throne. Facing him, a kneeling man with a shaved head wears an orange shawl and holds his hands in namaste. Behind them stands a large colourful deity murti with garlands, and a tray of offerings is held out at right. The setting is a yellow and red ceremonial stage. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's long swept-back hair, golden throne, orange robes, rudraksha mala and gold necklaces match the page's Swamiji reference.
