A man in a maroon turban with a gold brooch stands on a red-and-gold throne platform, smiling and raising both hands in a blessing gesture. He wears a maroon and gold dhoti, a cream shawl draped over his shoulders, a heavy gold necklace with a pendant, gold bangles and earrings. Behind him are a golden throne back and a carved wooden door. Golden tiger statues flank the platform, with a tiger-striped cloth draped across the seat, and a painted deity murti with a gold crown stands to the right. The setting is a temple-style stage. The man has long hair visible at the sides and distinctive gold adornments, a probable Swamiji (probable) in a ceremonial, seated-dais presentation with the royal throne setting; he is shown standing, and the setting and garments are ceremonial.
