A red and gold ornate throne with a large gilded arched backrest stands behind him, flanked by red cushions. Garlands of white jasmine and pink, yellow and purple flowers drape his neck and frame the throne. A small red tilak marks his forehead, and a gold bangle is visible on his wrist. Swamiji (probable): saffron/orange robes, orange turban, and a layered flower-and-jasmine garland on a throne-like seat with ornate gold backdrop. Single person, meditative devotional setting.
