A seated figure on a golden throne-like seat draped with a tiger-skin cushion, wearing a red-brown turban and red-orange ochre robe with heavy gold necklaces and a yellow-and-green marigold garland. A tiger-striped mat and gold-embroidered cushions flank the seat, a plate of offerings and a lit lamp sit on a gold cloth below, and a fringed canopy hangs above. This appears to be a guru puja or darshan setting. The seated figure is a depiction in a photograph of a ceremonial seat, shown with turban, saffron-toned robe and ornate gold cues, and the resemblance to Swamiji is probable.
