A seated man in an orange-saffron robe with a long rudraksha mala and a white vibhuti line across his forehead smiles and holds a peacock-feather fan. Beside him stands a gilded silver trident. A man in a white collared shirt bows forward with his palms pressed to a golden trident and his face near the blessing object, a gesture of darshan. Behind them are golden lion-form and gilded sculptural elements, an orange cloth, and orange-and-white latticed screens. The man in the saffron robe matches Swamiji (probable) by his long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, and is shown in an interaction with a devotee.
