A seated man in a red-brown dhoti and a red-brown upper cloth, wearing a white-and-pink garland, gold necklaces and gold armlets, sits with palms pressed together in namaskar on an ornate gold-and-red throne. A man lies prostrate on striped multicolored mats in the foreground, hands extended forward, bare-chested. A standing fan stands at left beside a stone pillar, and a person in orange sits in the background at far left. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, a gold necklace, rudraksha-style adornments and ornate gold throne seating, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji. The prostrate man and the background figure are devotees.
