A smiling man seated on an ornate silver throne with carved floral and scroll patterns, wearing a deep maroon turban with a jewelled ornament, a red-brown shawl draped over his shoulders, a long pink and white flower garland, and heavy gold beaded necklaces with a gold pendant. A silver ceremonial staff with a twisted shaft stands at his left and a yellow and red embroidered banner is at the right edge, with blurred green foliage behind. Probable Swamiji: the turban, long swept hair, saffron-toned clothing and ornate gold necklaces match the page's description of him at the Tiruvannamalai Adheenam, and he is the seated presence on the throne.
