A seated man in a saffron-orange robe and a gold-bead garland sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with leopard-print cloth draped over the seat. Two large painted deity statues flank him, orange-skinned with multiple arms, gold jewellery and crowns, and brass oil lamps stand in front of the colourful temple-style backdrop. The seated man has a tilak on his forehead and is smiling. Swamiji (probable): a long-haired, saffron-robed figure with a rudraksha-style gold garland seated on a throne, presented as the speaker at a discourse. The scene is a stage set with red carpet and a golden arched backdrop.
