A seated man in a reddish-maroon dhoti and wrap with gold border sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions and a peacock-feather backrest. He holds a tall silver trident (trishul) upright in one hand, eyes closed, with a red tilak on his forehead, rudraksha mala necklaces, gold ornaments and bangles. Two brass oil lamps (diyas) with yellow flames sit on the gold platform below his feet, and a gold canopy hangs above. A second person in orange garments is partly visible at the right edge. Outdoors, with stands and red flags in the background. Swamiji (probable): long hair, rudraksha malas and gold ornaments on a throne-seated figure with a trident; the page identifies Swamiji at this event.
