A seated man in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban with a small red-and-white mark on the forehead sits on a gold throne decorated with floral garlands in yellow, red, white, and green. He wears heavy gold necklaces, gold bangles and a gold-bordered shawl, and holds open a printed sheet while gesturing with his right hand, smiling. Seated devotees in white and pale-striped shirts face him from the foreground, and a woven basket of offerings sits at his left. The man is Swamiji (probable) based on the saffron robes, orange turban, long hair, and gold ornaments, with the page indicating this event. Gold-patterned throne base and yellow columns frame the setting.
