A seated man in saffron-red robes sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, under a large painted banyan tree with hanging aerial roots and a sunset riverside backdrop. He wears a red turban with small white ornaments, a rudraksha mala, a ceremonial white flower garland, and gold armlets. A tall silver trident stands to his right, and two floral arrangements of yellow marigolds, purple flowers and white lilies flank the throne. A potted plant and tall grass sit at the right edge. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, a crown-style turban, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and ceremonial garland cues consistent with the page's claim.
