A seated figure in a deep orange-red turban and saffron robe sits on a gold-carved throne with red velvet cushions and gold lion armrests. Garlands of yellow marigolds with red and white flowers frame the throne back. A standing attendant in orange-and-gold dhoti and shawl, with a rudraksha mala, drapes a red and white flower garland over the seated figure's head while holding a tray. Gold trident-topped staffs and a gold kalasha-like ornament flank the throne against a maroon backdrop. The seated figure, wearing a gold necklace and red and white garlands, is being honoured with a garland, consistent with a Swamiji (probable) based on the saffron-orange clothing, turban and ornate gold adornments.
