A man seated on an ornate silver throne with a red velvet back, flanked by tiered tassels in red, orange, green, purple and yellow, and peacock feather decorations above. He smiles broadly and wears a pink and white floral garland, a red-brown robe, a thick gold necklace with a large gold pendant, a rudraksha mala, gold armlets and bangles, and a white and orange forehead mark. Golden leaf ornaments frame the right side and a stone lion is at the lower edge. Blurred heads of people in the foreground suggest an audience. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair, a crown-like headband, ornate gold jewellery and saffron-toned ceremonial clothing, seated on the throne as the central figure of honour.
