A man with long dark hair and a red bindi sits on an ornate gold throne with carved scrollwork and a red velvet back, beneath a gold canopy with hanging leaf-shaped tassels. He wears a loose saffron-orange robe over a red garment, with bare feet resting on a gilded platform. Yellow curtains hang behind, with a side table holding fruit and books nearby. Given the person's saffron robe, long hair, forehead mark and throne with canopy, this is a probable Swamiji seated in a ceremonial setting.
