A seated man in rust-red robes sits on an ornate golden throne with lion-shaped armrests and leopard-print cushions, in front of a large gold-carved backdrop with fan-like arches. He wears a rust-red turban with a jewelled ornament, a heavy gold necklace with a lotus pendant, rudraksha-style beads, gold armlets and bangles, and a long rust-red shawl. He holds his arms outward on the armrests, speaking into a microphone on a stand, while a white snake-shaped staff rests beside the throne. Swamiji (probable): the figure's turban, ornate clothing, gold necklaces and throne seating match the page's Swamiji claim.
