A tall golden trident stands beside the throne. Seated devotees fill the foreground and a white-draped hall, many women in saffron, red and orange saris, and a girl in a red blouse watching attentively. The man's appearance with long swept hair, turban, saffron shawl and ornate adornments is consistent with the Swamiji (probable) label, seated in a discourse setting.
