A seated man in an orange-saffron robe and a heavy gold necklace of large beads sits on a gold-and-red throne, smiling, with long swept-back hair, a white tilak and a red bindi. A polished silver bowl with embossed floral patterns sits on a green banana leaf in front of him. Behind him, women in saris, one in cream and gold and another in red, sit near steel vessels in a pink-walled hall. Gold-toned ornaments and a tall gold staff are visible at left. The Swamiji (probable) label is based on his orange robe, long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace and throne.
