A photograph of a smiling man seated on an ornate golden throne with a large gilded backrest and carved gold lion-like armrests. He wears a leopard-print headwrap, a saffron-red cloth, layered gold necklaces and a gold pendant, and multiple garlands of yellow marigolds and red roses. He raises his right hand in blessing and holds a silver staff topped with a small animal figure. Leopard-print cloth covers the seat. Fairy lights and a decorated backdrop are behind him. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long dark hair under the headwrap, ornate gold necklaces and saffron-red clothing, and is presented on a throne as the central figure of the event.
