A seated man in a peach-coloured dhoti and shawl sits on an ornate gilded throne with a sculpted golden back, smiling and raising one hand in greeting. He wears a cream turban with a red mark on the forehead, layered gold beaded necklaces and gold bangles. Lit oil lamps flank the throne on the left. On the right stands a tall painted statue of a deity with a crown, multiple gold necklaces, red lower garment and a raised hand holding a trident-like implement. A small audience is partially visible at the bottom edge. Probable Swamiji cues: turban, gold necklaces and ceremonial throne seating.
