A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a red turban sits on an ornate gold throne on a stage draped with red velvet. He wears a rudraksha-style mala and a gold necklace and holds his hand outstretched toward a pot of greenery. Behind him a large painted backdrop shows a green-faced deity with a crown and halo, a bull, a crescent moon, a trident and a saffron-robed figure in profile. Brass oil lamps stand on either side, a brass vessel and a lotus-flower garland sit on the stage floor, and gold carved pillars frame the set. The page-flag candidate is Swamiji (probable) in an appearance-based sense, given the saffron robes, mala and turban on the throne.
