A bearded man with long dark hair and a forehead tilak sits on an ornate silver-and-red throne, smiling. He wears a red-orange draped cloth over bare shoulders, a heavy gold beaded necklace with a large gold pendant, gold earrings, and rudraksha bracelets. Two hands from the edges hold white thread and a folded paper slip near him, as in a ritual or blessing exchange. A red velvet cushion and a carved stone background complete the scene. Swamiji (probable): the man has long swept-back hair, ornate gold beaded jewellery, rudraksha bands and a sannyasi-style red-orange drape, and the page identifies him as Swamiji.
