A seated man in a red turban and red draped garments sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with carved arches and lion-like figures, with a red cushion on the seat. He wears layered gold necklaces, gold armlets and a red bindi, and holds his hands together in his lap. Brass oil lamps with rooster-shaped finials flank the throne. Behind him, a large painted backdrop shows an orange-toned landscape and a painted figure with a jewelled headdress and bangles. Some printed photo credit text appears in the lower right corner. Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne, as shown by his red turban, saffron-red draped garments and multiple gold necklaces.
