Two seated men in orange saffron robes sit on maroon velvet chairs before an ornate gold throne with carved lion heads. The man on the left is elderly, bald, with a white headband, rudraksha beads and gold bangles, bare-chested with an orange wrap, speaking and gesturing with one hand. The man on the right has long swept-back dark hair, a yellow tilak on his forehead, a dark rudraksha mala and a saffron wrap, smiling while resting his hand on a gilded lion head. Gold-trimmed cabinetry and a marble-patterned wall form the backdrop. Swamiji (probable) appears to be the man on the right, based on the long hair, orange clothing, rudraksha mala and forehead tilak.
