A seated figure on an ornate gold throne (peetha) with red velvet cushions, framed by a gold arch decorated with red roses, white flowers and peacock feathers. The seated person wears a saffron-orange turban, saffron-orange robe and a white garland with a gold pendant, with arms resting on the armrests and a smiling expression. Two tall standing figures with multiple arms and gold crowns flank the throne, painted in red and orange with gold jewellery. A brass oil lamp (vilakku) stands at the right edge and a yellow-clad person is partly visible at the lower left. The seated figure has long swept-back hair and a saffron-orange robe with a garland, consistent with the appearance-based candidate for Swamiji (probable).
