A man seated on an ornate gilded throne with lion-head armrests, draped in white and orange fabric and framed by a rainbow arc of yellow, red, purple and white flower garlands. He wears a gold jeweled crown, a deep red brocade kurta with gold patterning, a white dhoti, a thick gold necklace and multiple rings, and holds a silver staff topped with a small bird figure. A red kumkum dot marks his forehead, and a flower-decorated footstool lies at his feet. Probable Swamiji is seated on the throne as the central figure, with the crown, saffron-orange drapery and ornate gold necklace as the qualifying cues.
