A man in red robes sits on an ornate gold and red velvet throne with carved lion-like arm supports, hands folded in his lap. He wears a red turban with a red dot on the forehead, a white beaded necklace, and a large gold pendant on a long gold chain, with a gold armband on the upper arm. Two gold oil lamps stand on either side, and a forest-like backdrop of tree roots fills the background. Two seated people are partially visible at the lower edges: one with a shaved head in orange-red cloth on the left, and one with a braided dark hair on the right. Swamiji (probable) is seated on the throne in the center, wearing saffron-red clothing, a turban and gold ornaments, consistent with the page's reference to a talk on mysticism and philosophy.
