A smiling man with long dark hair and a full beard sits on a flower-decorated throne backed by a dense wall of red roses, yellow marigolds and white blooms. He wears a rust-red shawl over his body, gold ornaments on his arms, and layered garlands of pink and white flowers around his neck. He holds a small offering with an orange fruit and green leaves, and a peacock-feather fan rests at the left edge. A white horizontal tilak with a red bindi marks his forehead. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, rust-red shawl and ceremonial garlands are visible cues of a seated ceremonial figure, and the page places him at this event. No other people are visible.
