A seated man in saffron and orange ceremonial robes sits on an ornate golden throne with lion-head armrests, behind a red table draped with a gold-bordered red cloth. He wears a long rudraksha-style mala and gold necklaces, with a red-and-gold ceremonial cloth over his shoulder, and holds a small silver vessel while a shaved-headed attendant in orange robes on the left handles brass and silver bowls and a silver pot. Silver and brass ritual vessels, a yellow rice-like offering and a small flame sit on the table. Orange and red marigold-style flower arrangements flank gold pillars against white draped curtains. Swamiji (probable) appears to be the seated man, based on the long swept-back hair, saffron robes, gold necklaces and rudraksha mala cues, and the page indicates the event involved a puja.
