A man seated on an ornate silver throne decorated with jewel-toned gems, red, green and blue stones, and peacock-like scrollwork. He wears a maroon-brown cloth, a heavy gold necklace and a gold pendant, and has a white forehead mark with a central red dot. Pink and white flower garlands hang across his chest, and gold bangles are on his wrists. Tiger-striped cushions and elephant-head armrests frame the seat. The man is probable Swamiji by appearance cues: long swept-back hair, ornate gold jewellery and a shawl, seated on a jewelled peetha.
