A seated man in a rust-red turban with a silver brooch and a small red tilak on his forehead sits smiling in front of a deep red curtain and gilded carved backdrop. He wears a rust-red shawl, a thick ceremonial gold necklace of beads, a red-beaded armband and long dark hair falling behind his shoulders. Beside him stands a gilded lion-head carving on a leopard-print cushioned seat. Swamiji (probable): the rust-red turban, long hair, ornate gold necklace and saffron-toned shawl are the qualifying cues for this seated figure.
