A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gilded throne carved with lion-like and floral motifs, its armrests shaped as a crouching lion and a bull. He wears an orange turban, a multi-strand white beaded necklace and bangles, and gestures with raised hands while smiling. Lit oil lamps in tiered brass stands and hanging brass lamps surround the throne against a dark background, with strings of small flame lamps on the walls and marigold-like flowers and offerings at the base. Swamiji (probable) is shown in the role of the seated spiritual leader on the throne, identified by his saffron robes, orange turban, rudraksha-style beaded mala and ornate gold-throned setting.
