A smiling man sits on an ornate gold throne with leopard-print upholstery and a carved golden lion-head armrest. He wears a saffron-orange garment, a crown-like floral head ornament with white and yellow flowers and green leaves, a ceremonial garland of white flowers and purple blossoms, a rudraksha-style mala, gold earrings and a red tilak with a green leaf on his forehead. A painted backdrop shows a figure beside pink lotuses. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, floral crown and ornate garland mark him as the seated ceremonial figure on the throne.
