A man seated cross-legged on an ornate white and red throne in front of a gold-decorated backdrop with carved lions and elephants. He wears a rust-orange turban with a crescent and jewelled ornaments, a saffron-orange wrap and dhoti, a long gold necklace with a large pendant, and gold armbands and bangles. He raises both hands in an expressive gesture while speaking into a microphone on a stand. A silver staff stands at left beside a small table holding a copper vessel and a framed photograph. Swamiji (probable): the man has long swept-back hair, a turban and saffron clothing with ornate gold adornments, a ceremonial throne and a discourse setting.
