A seated figure in a rust-red turban with a round jewelled brooch, rust-red robe and a heavy gold bead necklace with a brown cord sits on a leopard-print throne cushion. He holds a folded white cloth in both hands. Behind him is an ornate heart-shaped backdrop of gemstone-like inlay in red, blue, green and white, framed by yellow and red marigold garlands. Golden lion heads flank the seat, and a gold staff leans at the left. At left edge, a bare-chested attendant in saffron-orange dhoti holds a rudraksha mala and white cloth. Probable Swamiji by appearance: the swept-back long hair, turban, saffron-toned robes, ceremonial gold necklace and rudraksha mala qualify him as an in-person candidate seated in a throne setting.
