A man sits on an ornate white-and-red velvet throne on a stage, smiling with open palms, speaking into a microphone on a stand. He wears a leopard-print turban with a gold crescent ornament, rust-brown robes with gold borders, a long gold beaded necklace and gold pendant, a gold armband, and a tilak mark on his forehead. Floral garlands in red, yellow and green hang on the throne behind him, and a small framed portrait sits at the lower left. Swamiji (probable) is seated as the speaker, shown by the throne, long swept-back hair, crown-like turban and ornate ceremonial gold necklaces. A carved white staff with a cow-shaped finial rests at the right.
