A seated man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban sits on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion on a stage, hands folded in his lap and wearing a white floral garland. Behind him is a painted backdrop of a blue-skinned deity figure with a club on a red-and-blue scene. To the right, a gilded arch frames a decorated deity murti draped in a pink-and-purple garland, flanked by two smaller standing figures in green and red garments. Brass oil lamps, a trident-topped stand and a gold canopy surround the throne on a red patterned carpet. Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne, identified by the orange turban, saffron robes, and rudraksha-style necklace cues.
