A seated man on an ornate silver throne wears a rust-red robe, a leopard-print headband, large rudraksha mala necklaces and a gold pendant, and holds a thread bundle while a devotee bows. A woman in orange cloth with white ash markings on her arms bends forward and holds a brown kalasha-like vessel at his feet. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, a leopard headband, rudraksha malas and a gold chain, so the appearance cues are distinctive. Other figures include the woman in orange and a bare-chested devotee kneeling with white markings.
