A seated man on an ornate gold throne with a carved golden back and two gold lion figures on the arms, draped with a leopard-skin cloth on the seat. He wears saffron-orange robes, a long gold ceremonial necklace and a rudraksha-style mala, and holds a gold ceremonial staff in one hand while smiling. The background is deep red velvet drapery. Swamiji (probable): the appearance cues of swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and ornate gold regalia on a throne are present, so this is a depiction of the Paramashivam seated in state.
