A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with carved arch and two golden lion figures, a red velvet cushion beneath him. He wears a long rudraksha-style bead necklace, bangles on his arms, and a small red bindi on his forehead, and raises his right hand in blessing while smiling. Long dark hair falls past his shoulders. A ceremonial rod rests against the throne's right side. Behind him a painted backdrop shows a deity holding a trident, and hanging lamps are visible above. Swamiji (probable): the saffron robes, long swept-back hair, and long bead necklace with the raised blessing gesture on a throne match the presentation of the Swamiji candidate in this seated, ceremonial setting.
