A man seated on an ornate gilded throne with red cushions, hands clasped in his lap. He wears a multicoloured pastel turban, a blue silk garment with gold border and a long gold bead necklace, with a red bindi on his forehead. Behind him a large orange backdrop carries bold red lettering reading Dasara and partial Kannada script. A small rectangular table with gilded panels is at the left edge. The figure is presented as Swamiji (probable) based on the swept-back long hair, ceremonial gold necklace and ornate blue and multicoloured dress, seated in an honoured position.
