A smiling man in orange saffron robes sits on an ornate gold throne with a carved, scalloped backrest, raising one hand in a gesture of address. He wears a long rudraksha mala of dark beads, has long swept-back hair, a red kumkum bindi and white markings on his forehead. A red cushioned seat and a pale patterned backdrop with painted figures surround him. In the foreground, the blurred head and hair of a seated listener is visible at the lower left. The setting suggests a satsang discourse. Swamiji (probable) is seated at the centre, identified by long hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and a ceremonial gold throne.
