A man seated on an ornate silver-framed red velvet throne raises a gold ceremonial staff topped with a lotus-bud finial set with a red stone in his right hand. He wears a red-orange garment, heavy gold chain necklaces, gold armlets and bangles, and a jewelled brooch, with a vertical forehead mark and long hair falling past the shoulders. Blurred seated devotees fill the background of a bright hall. The scene reads as a satsang or darshan setting. The man has long swept-back hair, ornate gold jewellery and red-orange clothing, a presentation consistent with Swamiji (probable), seated in the front of the hall and holding the staff of authority.
